It is H870.  They quit making that a long time ago.  I think they make the 8700 still.

thanks we used 8700 in our 378-338;s and Dave at harbor gun said we would have to start using Retumbo as he could;nt get the 8700 anymore.

I think H870 was pulled from production before the 8700.  Either way, both are rare.
