[QUOTE="jmden, post: 33159, member: 1742"] Brent and all, You tested H50BMG with you 30-388 Lapua Imp., right? What was your powder charge? It just seems a waste of case capacity to use 90-95 grains of powder with the 200g bullets on such a big case as the 300 RUM. That would indicate to me that a guy should be using a slower powder with that size bullet and fill that case up some more--not compress it, just fill it up. I got ejector pin marks at 93 grains Retumbo and am at 94.4 grains of Re25 for my hunting load. I just think that leaves too much room in the big case and wonder if we're not taking advantage of it due to powder selection in part. Comments? [/QUOTE]
