[QUOTE="shawnb, post: 768262, member: 25630"] Ya for sure...im using 69gr of h1000 with the 180 hybrids in win brass with f215m primers. This load was right at .5moa at 500. And i could prob push it to 70 grains as im not getting pressure signs yet. But they shot good here so ill leave it. Previous to trying those i was and still am going to shoot the 168 vld around 10 thou off with 70gr h1000 and same primer and casings. They are moving in the 3050 fps range and that is a verified velocity with no pressure also. I could run them higher to i think but again they shoot great there. I will test the hybrids out on some yotes and deer to see how they do. But i think Broz said he trusted them so if they hold out to a grand ill switch once i run out of the 168s. And ive got a lot of 168s. Now im not sure how your chamber is but if its throated long you should be able to push the envelope with retumbo in a 28" barrel and still have good brass life. From everything ive read you can use 1-2 extra grains of retumbo compare to h1000. And retumbo really seems to come together once it gets to a top end load just shy of max to give decent ES and SD. Work up like you are and be safe. [/QUOTE]
