Try to get some reloader 25.
I used 7828 with a 180 grain bullet and the rl 25 with a 210 Berger vld also used a WLRM primer

Hornady has powders listed on their website for this bullet and cartridge combo, but you probably know that.
I am using this bullet in my 30-378wby with H50BMG i am having good luck.

Was the rifle accurate before with another load? Reason I ask, is Weatherbys have been known to be temperamental. Some are accurate, but others won't hit the broad-side of a barn.

Yes it is. Rifle is skim bedded, trigger tuned, crown has been recut and csr muzzle break installed.
Will shoot factory ammo under 3/4 moa with ease. Have a proven load with Imr 7828 and 200 gr nosler partition that shoots well under 1/2 moa.

I need help with a load for my 300wby 200 eldx. I saw a post someone posted about using 7828 powder but they didn't post the charge? Anyone help with that please.

I am also looking for help with a good 338 win mag load for my son's rifle.

Pushing 212 ELD-X out of my 300 Wby with Retumbo. Tried H-1000 and 7828 but Retumbo was the clear winner. Great velocity and exceptional accuracy.

What charge are you using?

 

[WildBillG]

I would like to know the velocity as well as charge weight. Manuals don't show much of a velocity gain with Retumbo. This surprises me as my friends 300WM gained 100fps switching to Retumbo. I am guessing he is getting 3030 for velocity using Retumbo and the 212 ELDX. If I could get 3100 with my 300Wby I would switch to them.
