Need Help with 300 RUM
I want to work up loads for my 300 RUM with 200 grain Swift-A-Frame, Trophy Bonded, North Fork Bullets. I want to start with RL 25.

I have the Reloading data for the Swift. But it seems ther is none available for the Trophy Bonded or North Fork Bullets. I have never reloaded without any data and am not sure how to proceed.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Start at about 82gr and work up.You might also wanna try Retumbo.I use it in both of my 300 RUM 1000 yard match gun's........I have found it to be more consistant than 25....

ricciardelli
RL-25 From 85.0 grains to 91.5 grains
Federal 215 Primer

But you might get better results with
AA-8700 From 95.4 grains to 111.0 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer
