Tomorrow I’m going to test them at 1800 see how it goes.  If I can get a hold the wind that is.  Bears beware I’ll be looking for you 😎

Are you using the GoPro app on your phone?

I'm a little surprised by your velocity, I expected it to be higher.

yes and I got it figured out.   Could go faster but it’s hard on the hornady brass. This load has zero preasure signs

I may have enough capacity now for retumbo. With h1000 I’m no longer getting compressed before preasure.  May pick up an lb and see how it does

Retumbo is a bit slower, but it's so darn bulky and takes up so much space I'm not sure if you could even get enough in the case to outrun your H1000 load. 

It's unfortunate Viht N570 is nearly impossible to get because I'd bet N570 would give you another 100 fps over H1000.

ive thought about the Barrett but I’m told large rifle primers have more consistent ignition than 50bmg primers.  Plus I’d need a bigger press.

You get into those cartridges, and the press will be the cheapest part. lol

thats true.  Just one more thing on the list I suppose, even the cheytac would be a pain on the rock chucker which I think is around 4.25” clearance maybe a bit more I don’t remember.  It’s an expensive game but I’m hopelessly addicted.

That'll work! I had 338 Edge for a while that only shot 2840 fps with a 300gr OTM from a 30" barrel with max loads. It shot great but that sucker was SLOW! You're in the same ball park with a lot less powder.
