Are you crafting loads for the 300 WM with Retumbo? I have a Rem 700 Long Range (with 1-10 twist barrel) and hear that this powder works well. What bullets work best with this powder, and what powder charges?
Thanks, what is your rifling twist?I’m very happy with Retumbo and 208-212grn bullets in .300WM.

I have just posted a couple of good 100-yd targets from my last outing to the range. The posted loads are not from the book, but are my personal work-up loads. I had no pressure signs in my loads at that level, but you might want to work-up gradually in your rifle.This thread is over a month old, did you give up on the Retumbo in your 300 win mag, or did you give it a try?
I'm going to be giving it a try in 2 of my 300 win mags. I have a pound of it sitting around and it's time I do something with it.
I don't think it's too slow for the 300 win mag, but I'm not willing to argue it until I give it a try.
