[QUOTE="MLorch, post: 1229805, member: 84710"] Hi Guys I was wondering what loads you are running for the 212s in the Rum, I am playing with 89.9grs of H1000, WLRMs, Rem brass with a seating depth of 3.9 OAL or 3.168 Ogive. I have clocked them at right around the 2975-2980 range. Based on Isnipe they just drop subsonic @ 2000 and pack 2050lbs of energy @ 1000. I can get just under 1" groups @200 but my Sako 75 seems to be very sensitive to the speed. The 1/2 muzzle on this thing must whip like mad with this bullet ripping it up. I have no concerns about this thing being able to drop a moose or elk at 1000-1500yds based on the amount of energy and speed it is retaining even at these ranges, but I am a little concerned about the sensitivity to speed, it makes for a very small window of accuracy. Just looking for other options to try, I will be using this load for 1000yd target and hunting. Thanks [/QUOTE]
