[QUOTE="Newfoundlander, post: 1194837, member: 92078"] First of all, I found that Reloader 25 is the go to powder that the 300 RUM was designed upon... Reloader 50 was designed for the 50 Cal. Rifles.. Over 800 rounds through my Sendero, Stainless at 3300 fps, and still shooting half to 3/4 inch groups.. The bullet of choice for hunting is the 180 g Swift Scirocco Bonded bullet... This bullet was recommended by Remington for the RUM and was designed around a speed of 3300 fps.... It is now loaded in the Remington factory ammo...... They started with Partitions and progressed to the Scirocco Bonded due to the greater speed and terminal velocity.. I don't aggressively clean the barrel, just run a patch through after 50-100 rounds.. Reloader 25 is a clean burning powder and from my experience with Bergers, I could never get them to shoot accurately... For paper punching, I found the Hornady 178 Match to be the go to bullet, similar to the characteristics of the Scirocco Bonded 180ès.. Hope that my findings help you out.. [/QUOTE]
