[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 633899, member: 505"] Just stay within what your rifle tells you. Pressure can change drastically with different powder lots when you reach near max loads compounded by the fact of loading near the lands. Sierra lists 93 grains H-1000 for the 300 grain smk so that would put the slower retumbo up near 95 grains using the same data. 94.5 grains Retumbo has been one of my best loads since 2001 when the 338 RUM was introduced. It just depends on the rifle and the lot of powder. Just let your rifle tell you what to do with that lot of powder. [/QUOTE]
