[QUOTE="sp6x6, post: 502131, member: 21869"] I ran the #'s and that is what lead me to try the 285. Drops where to be the same like you said. I dont think I got the 285 quite up to speed, but it shot lower @ 1000 than the berger, side by side. The berger is revised .818, the hornady .720, the berger carries 200 more energy across the board at all ranges, whats not to like. I put 3 bergers in 1 1/4 today @ 400, third time in last 2 wks. gota go with it. We have a bison gong at 460 and that 300 just rocks that thing, I put eyeballs on itgun)I will try 285's some more because I RAN OUT of berger,back order. Retumbo is a extreme powder, the load I gave you before is from the GM of a gun shop that is in process of building a 20,000 sq. ft. shop. 10 rnds es 5, in my rifle and his, this powder he put 3 in 4'' at 1100 +, that rifle was 338 edge on classifieds few weeks back, had a ABS BARREL ON DEFIANCE.
