[Huntboy]

Does anybody have any they currently use. And are you willing to share them.

Thanks, Scott

Last year I was shooting 90 grains retumbo with 210 Berger CCI 250 and oal of 3.69 was a fairly mild load but shoots under 0.5 moa. I'm having some work done to my rifle and have some.215 Berger's loaded up for load development when it comes back. I couldn't get 200 accubonds and retumbo much under moa but didn't try all that hard. Ill save the 200 accubonds for my 06.

210 Berger VLD
Nosler Brass
Fed GM 215 primer
RL 25 - 87.9 grains
seated -0.02 from the lands

MOA for me.

[hoyt2002]

165 gr. accubond
remington brass
remington 9m primers
90 grains of imr7828

In my rifle it shoots moa. I killed a buck and a spike bull with them this year. This is a max load in the Nosler loading book so start low and work you way up. good luck.

I shoot almost the same load as bullblaster with the exception of 180 grain nosler accubond instead of the Berger. shoots well outta my Browning

Thank you for the help, Gentlemen.

My rifle loves 95.5gr of retumbo under a 200gr accubond. 95,5gr is too much for a couple of freinds rifles but I'm not seeing any press. signs and the brass is lasting at least 10 fireings.

I bet that is one flat shooting load!   Your smoking that 165 out there.

I have only tried retumbo in my rum. I use imr  4350 in most other calibers though. 243 7 mag and 30-06

IMR and H-4350 are too fast for the RUM

IMR and H-4350 are too fast for the RUM

That's what I was thinking. But may work with light bullets. I like heavy bullets for my RUM.

I use 7828 with good results when I was loading xlc's and sgk's. It produced good accuracy and velocity. My personal favorite load is 110gr 8700 under a 180tsx. It's a real pleasure in a 6lb gun too....lol.

[Huntboy]

In the new Nosler reloading manual, they said it worked real well with the lighter bullets. They show it for 165 and 180 gr., thinking about accubonds.

Huntboy,

7828, 8700 and Retumbo are all good choices.  I will be starting with 7828 and a 180 Accubond to work up a load for a friends rifle this summer.  Good luck and let us know how yours shoots.

[high country]

You won't find any 8700. Accurate decided to kill it off, and I bought every bottle I could find. If you do find some....I only have a few pounds left.

My friend and I both load with H1000 his gun uses 891/2 and mine uses 92 with the 200 accubonds we have got good groups and has worked good for game.
