[QUOTE="linksmechanic, post: 333011, member: 7317"] The first pound of retumbo I bought for the 7rm listed a 175 grn bullet at 2900. I still have the bottle somewhere. Now the bottles say 2800. I too believe something stinks in denmark with the current reloading data for the rm. Now don't go and do this but I get 3000 fps with no pressure with a 180 grn berger in the lands. This is with a 26" barrel. I'm using there listed max of 68 grns. Hodgdons data for a 162 grn. is around 2970 so I would think you could easily get there with a 160 with retumbo. Bergers data list's 3022 for a 168 with retumbo. [/QUOTE]
