[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1993754, member: 10755"] Both powders are a little fast for the application, however, I used RE22 years ago in a 24” barreled 300WM with good results. My notes tell me I was running 76gr of RE22 behind a 180gr Accubond. Checking this, the load is 1 grain below max, so I suggest you work up to max from 74gr and see which load is most accurate in your rifle. I load to max mag length less .010-.015” for wiggle room. You didn’t mention what rifle it is, if it has a 3.4” mag box, just load to 3.385-3.390”, as the throat is gonna be miles from that distance anyway if a SAAMI chamber. You can seat deeper and test for the sweet spot if you like. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
