[QUOTE="SMK1000plus, post: 1490710, member: 93846"] I also use Retumbo with both the Hornady 212gr ELD-X and with 215gr Berger Hybrids. Both are typically shooting @ 1/2 MOA 5 round groups with velocitys @ 2,820 fps out of several of my 300 Win Mags with 26" to 28" barrels but, man does Retumbo burn dirty! My experience with Retumbo is that it isn't too temperature sensitive between 95°F and 34°F here in NE FL. Only seen @ 70 fps SD between those temperatures. Same bullets, same rifles used with Alliant Reloder 23 (RL-23) shoots very clean with significantly less temperature sensitivity and just a little more accurate but, velocities lag @ 80 fps from Retumbo's velocities at similar temperatures. I still usually shoot the RL-23 loads most often. [/QUOTE]
