[QUOTE="Toddxusmc, post: 1594442, member: 108726"] ColoGuy970, as others have stated your pressure is way too high. The only way to achieve or keep the velocity you are looking for is to go to a slower powder. I have had great luck in my magnums(although not your specific caliber) with RETUMBO. The problem you might run into is case capacity, RETUMBO and other like powders require alot. The fact you are having issues with a powder like H1000 would dictate a slower powder US869, RE33 (maybe RE26), RETUMBO etc. Please DO NOT take the advice posted by another advocating H4350 for your load. If you’re getting blown primers w H1000, H4350 will be absolutely catastrophic(doubting the authenticity of that post). Im sure everyone with any experience will agree with me on that; going to a faster powder is not going in the right direction. [/QUOTE]
