In my 300RUM, I run 92gr of Retumbo with Norma brass, and Fed 215m, pushing a 200gr Accubond 3145fps with stellar accuracy, like .25 moa. This is from a 26” barreled Fierce Fury. It is an elk hammer.

@Jeff_Seely Год назад

Thanks Gavin and Guy for showcasing one of my most favorite go-to powders for my 28 Nosler. Heavy for caliber bullets and rutumbo get along very well in the 28 Nosler and puts more speed out of the muzzle than anything I've used. Keep up these great videos!

@andymills6583 2 года назад

Been using it since they came out with it,load it in my 300rum and 270wsm with excellent results!

@RGA-T7RIDER 2 года назад

I have been using Retumbo for years now. First in my Sendero 7mm Remington Magnum for lots of years, and then about 2019 started using it in my Savage 110 Tactical chambered in 6.5 PRC & also in my Bergara B-14 HMR chambered 6.5 PRC. Punching 20"x24" steel plate up to 1250' yards with .140 grain Nosler RDF's. Holding about 20 thousands from lands, loading 56.5 grains of Retumbo, I really like that Bergara!

@charlesmullins3238 Год назад

Just got some and was wondering if 140s or 35 a tips work with it…6.5prc waypoint 24” carbon..my 130tmk run 3250fps and vaporize jugs at 200 killer…I’ve got 85gr rdf’s loaded for my carbine…went for the bergara and the look of this waypoint got me but actions not near as tight and smooth as b14…and I’ve shot 2 in creed and .300wm and both were impressive…

@rick9811 2 года назад

Savage 110FCP HS Precision Bolt Action, 338 Lapua. 92.5 grains of Retumbo under a 285 ELD-M, touched off by a GM 215M primer. SD of 3 and ES of 7. 2798 FPS. I'll be starting load development on my 300 WM's and 300 PRC now that I'm seeing it starting to show back up on the shelves. Back during the shortage I changed my WM's over to RL-22 and haven't got too much into LD for my PRC.

I’m using Retumbo in my 7mm Rem Mag Tikka T3X superlite 23.5” barrel. I’m using 72.5gn in Peterson brass shooting Berger classic hunter 150gn going 3122fps with an SD of 7.1 I’m finding I can get the first two bullets touching at 100m then the third hangs out there a little but still shot 0.58 MOA. Took it hunting and shot a red deer stag, a fallow deer buck, a pig and a yearling fallow spiker. I love it. 4 from 4 hunting.

@stevensrspcplusmc 2 года назад

I use retumbo for my 7 mm rem mag and my 300 win mag , great powder 👍😊 I get a kick out of all these new cartridges coming out, I think they make them to catch the shooter, nothing new.. they already have old cartridges, that do the same thing.. 243,270 , 30-“06, 7 rem mag and 300 win mag.. it’s all about bullet placement and trigger control.. people get carried away with all the b.s.. there’s a lot to be said for flinch factor.. I use 7rem mag with Bergers and it will do for just about any game.. getting a gun with the latest greatest cartridge, doesn’t make you a better shooter, practice does..

@supercomp65 2 года назад

Retumbo is my go to for my 375 RUM long range rifle. 103 gr pushes the 350 gr Cutting Edge Lazers right around 2890 fps. It's the perfect burn rate for that weight projectile. Not so fast that I get pressure signs when there's still usable case capacity left and not so slow that I run out of capacity before I see pressure. Unfortunately it's been over 2 years since I seen any of it on the shelves.

Retumbo is best powder out of my 6.5 PRC RPR using Berger's 140 Hybrid and 153.5 LR Hybrid bullets. Pushing 140's with 58.0 grs with a COAL of 3.045 gave me 3003 fps, ES: 9 and SD: 3.7 (Brass: Lapua, Primer: CCI 200). 57.2 gr. pushing the 153.5's to 2944 fps with COAL at 3.056, ES: 16, SD: 5.9 (Brass: Lapua, Primer: Federal 210). Temperatures at 68°F, Density Altitude: 165 ft.

@GripEngineering 2 года назад

Good to hear. I've tried 8133 with 153.5 and couldn't get enough in the case. RL26 had plenty of room left. Figured Retumbo might be the Goldilocks powder for 6.5 PRC heavies.

@rodgerthackeray7978 2 года назад

I've used Retumbo for 7RUM, 7SAUM, and 7 Rem Mag. 7RUM is pushing a 140 TSX at 3623 fps and .625 MOA. Need a strong bullet at those speeds. I have a Boyd's laminate thumb hole stock on the 7RUM to help minimize the recoil with no break.

@garrytalley8009 Год назад

Why not get a muzzle brake? Large magnums really benefit from a brake more than other cartridges. You can get up to 60% recoil reduction if you choose the right brake. All brakes are not equal, so you need to do some research.

@timmcfarland3311 2 года назад

The funny thing about the RUM is the heavier the bullet the better performance you get out of it. I have a 32” barrel on my RUM and I’m getting 3100 fps with the 245 Berger’s with no pressure at all. Awesome performance I use it in the light ELR class out to 2500 yards

@garrytalley8009 Год назад

It isn't funny, it makes common sense. There is more consistency in bullet weight with heavier bullets. They also have more bearing surface. It's a no brainer they will shoot tighter groups.

@bustabass9025 2 года назад

I use Retumbo in my Nosler M48 rifle chambered in .28 Nosler. The preferred load fuels a 168 grain Nosler AccuBond LR tipped cartridge at well over 3200 fps. I tried force feeding it the same bullet with H1000, H4831, and US869, because that's what I had at the time. It refused to perform. Now it shoots flat and hard hitting sub half inch groups all day long. I tried it in my .30-378 Wby with 180 grain AccuBond bullets, but wasn't impressed. It likes H50BMG much better. Just goes to show you, handloading is the only way to get the maximum use out of the big bangers. Just like a baby, you never know what it's going to like best until you try feeding it different food. I call it the Gerber Theory. [Laffin' 😄]

@guardianminifarm8005 2 года назад

Excellent vid & review. I have only recently used Retumbo because I wasn't able to get H1000 for my 7mmRemMag. I am pleased & impressed with my load development & results. I have only used it with 162g. ELDX. Excellent groups & decent SDs. I have an interesting question for you gents. Over the years I have consistently observed H1000 apparently "heating" up barrel quite quickly. It is noticably heating up faster than the 4350 & 4831 powders I have used mostly. Accuracy seemed to be hindered after 4 shots with most charges. Retumbo surprised me. My 2nd 5 shot groups were as good or better than the first. That has not been the case(for me) with H1000. I need to give the barrel a good bit of time to cool after first 5 shot group if I want follow groups to stay consistent & tighter. Any thoughts or suggestions? Well done men. Thank you.

Packing factor is based on the geometry, not the size. If using a large enough container for boundary issues to be negligible, similar shaped powders will have their differences in density determined by the density of the actual propellant and not the size of grain.

@@garrytalley8009 I didn't want to buy a whole bunch of different rifles. I wanted a rifle that I could reload ammo for and successfully shoot 200 lb animals all the way up to grizzly bear or possibly African game. There are so many different types of 30 caliber heads. I have shot 100 lb animals at 75 yards with no exit wound.

Well we wont be reloading much this year. Vista outdoors announced they will not be selling anymore primers to the public the rest of this year. They are CCI, REMINGTON, and FEDERAL primers... Im going to hold on to my primers for now..

Wish they would make more retumbo very very hard to find

Like it for my 264 mag best accuracy with 140sst at just over 3000 fps less than 3/4in

Also 338 Lapua with 300 Bergers.

In 10 years when I can get some I may consider it.

Found RE33 more efficient with higher MV for my 338 LAPUA.

Great powder next to impossible to find and when you find it it's 3 times what it normally goes for.

I would like to see everything and anything 300prc. Thanks.

I would love to see a load development in retumbo the 300 prc with the 220 eldx can't find one

@randalshelby7996 2 года назад

i was wondering where you can even get reloading supplies anymore. all the normal suppliers have been out of stock for way to long.

I didn't like it on the lighter bullets though, it left an imprint of the bolt on the case. The heavy bullets work great though.

7mm Rem Mag with a 168gr Berger, cci 250 primer with 74 gr of Retumbo works phenomenal.

@@joshuamorigeau1090 I know 7mag has more capacity, but I wonder how a 6.8 western 26” barrel with a 170 would do

@joshuamorigeau1090 Месяц назад

@@WesternReloader I haven’t tangled with a 6.8 yet, but I’m interested in one. The UR crew have great info out there for starting to work up some loads for testing. What are you looking to get from it?
