Any loads you guys have for the above is great.

Please list load, velocity, accuracy, performance etc.

Thank you.

I shot a 0.38" group with the following load...however, it opened up after that initial grouping. I'm planning to play around with the OAL when I can get some more TTSX's.

180 Grain - Barnes TTSX
90.0 Grains - RL 25
3.555" OAL
Federal Large Rifle Magnum Primers
Remington Brass

Wow, that looks pretty darned promising. Scotty

 

[FOTIS]

Any idea on velocity?

 

[TBASTIAN]

I don't...sorry!

Ordered some 180 TTSX for use in my rum today.Will put range results up ASAP.

Made a couple of early morning trips to my range the last couple of days.I did not have any E-tips but I thought I would share my findings between 180 Accubonds and 180 TTSX bullets. The Accubonds I had shot earlier this spring and am very pleased with the accuracy.The target shows 98.5 grs of Retumbo but I've settled on 97.5 for an average of about 3340fps.When I received the TTSX I figured 97.5 grs of Retumbo would be a good place to start.The velocities are darn near identical with 97.5 grs of Retumbo under each bullet.Accuracy between the two is almost identical as well as groups will be from .5 inch to .75 inch with either bullet. I'm using Nosler brass probably been through the sizer die 4 times and Federal 215 magnum primers .I have not shot any game with either bullet yet.

Looks great. Nice to have two great shooting loads ready to go! I shot a 300RUM yesterday with 200gr AB's running about 3200 and man, what a fun rifle and accuracy was excellent. Seems like a truely awesome rifle for longer range hammering. Scotty

STW,
That 180 AccuBond looks like one smoking load. Mine shoots well with RL25, I'm real pleased with it.
