H4350 is almost identical burn rate at reloader 19
imr 4350 is faster like reloader 17
newer h4350 also has the extreme tag that controls
temperature burn more effectively
I loaded a 200xtp for my father in law
longshot powder and wow was he impressed
raved about it for years fast & mild recoil
reminded me of my smokin fast 10mm loads
Retumbo is very very slow
used to burn imr 4831 with 225s but dropped down to
Reloader 19 & Hodgdon 4350 & they are spectacular with 200s
I have loaded for it since mid 70s 225s we’re the standard
but 200 grain accubond is MY go to bullet can’t imagine
any bull needing 2 of them...
Never used In 7mm rem mag
but it’s been my go to only powder i load in 7stw
under the 150 swift scirocco bullets since about 1995
my particular gun puts 1st 2 touching but 3 rd is always 1/4 “ above

I have followed Elmer loads with 2400 …was all he had access & available to him way back then
we are spoiled with powder section in todays world
Elmer would be slobbering over 110/296
Myself I have veered away from the flash & bang provided with those
spectacular powders …
opting for N110...

hornady sells a spectacular 35 grain Vmax specifically for the hornets
I absolutely love them & both f mine shoot them well
lil gun makes them run well up to almost 3000 fps
spectacular on rats make them worth a look
140 accubond & IMR 4350 makes 2950 in a 22 inch mountain rifle
spectacular light combination I set up for my kid

Coyote but they get shot with whatever I have
I test all handgun loads & bullets on green fresh cut Douglas fir rounds…I shoot into the end then split logs to measure the penetration

but expansions is the key to XTP...
I believe the 255 kieth with a gas check is same or similar at 260 grains in weight blue dot is spectacular but only close to max loads it not one to perform well at starting loads
