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.

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.

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.

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.
