Thank you for the response
No luck in the 300 WSM with the 200 ELD-X. Tried IMR4350, H4350, H4831, RL23.
Very good accuracy in 300 RUM with 93.8 grains Retumbo, Nosler Brass and Fed 215 (3155 fps).
Would someone be so kind as to run a QL for each of the following?
300 RUM- 26" barrel
200 ELD-X (OAL 1.53, bearing surface 0.700)
Retumbo
COL 3.70
Note: 94 grns gave 3190 fps
300 WSM-24" barrel
200 ELD-X
IMR 4350 and H4350
SAaMi OAL
Thanks

Would someone please run the following in QL? Looking for the node.
23" bbl
New brass
fed 215 primers
Load 1: 175 ABLR w/ retumbo. I get 2840 fps w/ 63.1 grn
Load 2: 175 ABLR w/ RL 23. I get 2740 w/ 57 grn
Load 3: 160 AB w/ RL 23. I get 2845 w/ 58.5 grn.
Thanks in advance
If you have a healthy supply of Retumbo I'd go for the 200AB and 94-95 grns Ret with Fed 215.
My Sako also shoots 180 scirocco or 180 TTSx over the max charge shown in the Lyman manual.
A big 300 is magic when you put the projectile in the right place.
Took a while to get here. I spent hours studying the loads you all developed as I worked up my loads. The icing on the cake was the Quickload data from DrMike.
Thanks again guys :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:
Hello gents!
Here's where I ended with the Cooper. All shoot 1/2-3/4" @100 yds and 1.5-2" @300 yrds.
145 LRX
59.5 RL23
Fed 215
3120 fps
168 ABLR
58.0 RL23
Fed 215 or 210 (1/2" better @300 yrd with Fed 215s)
2912 fps
not sure why this shoots-its in the middle of the node
175 ABLR
63.2 Retumbo...
Thanks again guys. I'll give a full report when I am done with these loads. I have a lot of rounds down range so there should be some significance to the data.
Hello gents
Hoping someone would be willing to run a couple sets in QL for me to help fine tune my loads. Been working on the first gun a while now and starting to get frustrated.
The first rifle is a Cooper Excaliber with 1:9 twist and 24" bbl. Shoots the loads below pretty well but not...
