[QUOTE="HoytemanPA, post: 32883, member: 286"] The 86 grain Retumbo load listed at the Hodgdon web site is with a X bullet. With that bullet H1000 is also listed as being limited to 83 grains. With a 200 gr partition spitzer, per Nosler 5th, H1000 can be taken to 92 gr. Looking at the other bullet data for Retumbo, same Hodgdon source, 180 grain SPBT are listed as 100.5C max charge and a 220 gr Nosler Partition at 89 gr max charge. With a little interpolation, this puts a 200 gr of similar construction and design a max which is a bit more than 86 if my math is correct. More like 94-95. Just an observation, use your own judgement, the above were my guidelines when working up over and back to a "way above max" load of 94gr Retumbo. [/QUOTE]
