If you were closer I could help you with RL25!

H1000 is usually a good bet for the 300rum

 

[Reemty J]

Retumbo also

 

[JamesWilson5]

Has anyone tried n570 or n568

 

[DanMan]

I used to shoot a 7RUM and always used Retumbo under 180 VLDs.
For the lighter bullets H1000 would probably work great.

Retumbo but it is as hard to find as your Reloder powders. Ramshot magnum is another great powder that is plentiful when found.

You have powders that will work well.
Another option is LRT, and it seems to be readily available. (And less expensive)
In a 7RUM, LRT is producing 3400&change with the 160 grain nosier BTips.

Have you tryed LRT with 180 gr bergers?
I have 5 pounds of it just setting there Smiling at me .

Nv-570 & 230 gr bergers in a 300 Rum is Money !
It also produces 3010 ft.per.sec with the 245 gr Bergers in my 1/9 twist 300 Rum .

N570, H1000, Retumbo and Ramshot Magnum have all been great powders for me.

The recommendation will vary and dependent on what bullet you are going to load, i.e.,

If you contact Berger's tech support, they will provide their recommendations, similar to the ones below.
