[QUOTE="18echo, post: 2017590, member: 76038"] Just wanted to put in my findings, for my rifle. I'm shooting a 3 groove 1-9 benchmark barrel @ 27 inches. With both Retumbo and H1000, the most forgiving node ( +/- .15 grains in the drop) is when the velocity is right at 2750 fps. For H1000 that's at 87.3 and Retumbo is 87.5. (using the OCW method for node finding) I'm shooting a Berger 300gr Elite Hunter. Factory 300 SMK Norma ammo is one-hole-at-100yds accurate and clocks in at an average of 2615 over 6 shots (first six shots out of the rifle with magnetospeed). I would really like to know what Sloan's recipe was for this round using the 300smk and Ramshot Magnum. I thought i recalled reading somewhere that this round was developed with that bullet and powder to shoot at 2650fps in a 26inch barrel. It's really surprising that even now, there is very limited "official" load data for this cartridge out on the web... [/QUOTE]
