Started load development for the 25-06 and 110 ELD-X today. I have previous really good results with 54 grains H4831 and the 110 AccuBond...so of course I started with Retumbo.
10 shot velocity node development:
57.2 3225
57.4 3232
57.6 3203
57.8 3236
58.0 3240
58.2 3215
58.4 3298
58.6 3188
58.8 3298
59.0 3287
Max velocity in the Nosler book is about 3250, and Hodgdon's max is around there too, at 59 grains.
Above 58 grains looks to be all over the place, would you start playing with seating depth at about 57.9 grains?
