[QUOTE="Russell123523, post: 1268760, member: 97204"] i started working on loads in july with h1000 and retumbo spent alot of time and trips to the range. I thought i had i was close a couple of times to be disappointed the next trip out. Anything that pushed over 2900 had ejector marks on brass a couple of gun smiths told me the hornady brass was junk. Using h1000 with a load over 69.3 caused problems with velocitys of right around 2900 fps. So i put it up until after hunting season was over i was considering rechambering to another caliber. I thought i would try one more time a month ago so i went down to the store and bought some rl33. With no load data available i loaded 72 72.5 73 73.5 74 75 75.5 76 grains and shot it though my magnetospeed and the 72 72.5 73 where 2864 2880 2884 as i moved up 75 was the first one over 2900 so i tried 72.7 that seemed to be the load 2880 avg. I have shot multiple 1/2 and 3/4 no flyer. I have had one trip out to the 1000 yard plate which produced a 8" 10 shot group so i guess i will keep it. It was a long and frustrating process. During this process i was pulling my hair out and ordered a copper 28 nosler so i guess that will be my new project. [/QUOTE]
