anyone have any good loads for these calibers? what bullets would you recomend? will be used for whitetail and mule
 
For the 300 RUM, I use 95gn of Retumbo to push a 200gn AB. Work up to this as it is very close to max. Primer is GM215M
 
In the 264 I use 72gr of H870 under 140gr X bullets, and in the RUM 96.5 gr under 168gr TSX's...

Both seem to work woderfully.

Those are the eatin' critter loads.
Coyote load is a 165NBT over 96gr of H1000 out of the 300RUM. Very effective. Hard on hides though.
 
Do a search. I have posted tons of loads on these.
 
I've used Nosler Ballistic Tip 120grn bullets with 70 grns of Retumbo and 130 grn AccuBond bullets and 69 grns of Retumbo.

I chrono'd the 120 @ 3265 FPS and the 130 @ 3300 FPS. I think that the 120 could go faster, but will more likely just stay with the AccuBond as the BT's I had were the old solid base style, 100 ct boxes and they kinda frag pretty badly when they hit bone. The IMR 4350 load a half or full grain below max in the Nosler 6 manual give slower velocities, but very uniform velocity, about a 10 FPS spread over 5 rounds. Good luck with the 264, it's a very potent round.
