[QUOTE="HSmithTX, post: 2681637, member: 121677"] You can't get enough 869 in either case to pressure out with a 215, that's not to say you can't get a good shooting load because you might, but even dropping with a 24" drop tube and vibrating the cases I never even got the cases cleaned up in RUM or WM. By weight you can get an impressive number in them and OK to decent speed but for me I want something fairly close to pressure signs for working loads. 26 will work in the WM, work well too is my guess and I would say it will give you the top velocity possible. I got impressive velocity and accuracy with 212 ELD-X using it with a 24". I haven't tried it in the RUM yet. H1000 would be the standard I would judge the other loads by in the WM I think, I can't recall ever having a load that didn't shoot well with H1000 when it was an appropriate powder for the cartridge and I have had on average excellent results in everything I have loaded with it. Retumbo should also be good in the RUM but I haven't had time to mess with it yet. N570 or RL33 are all I have that I would expect to maybe outperform Retumbo on the RUM. Lots of loads to try and not much time. [/QUOTE]
