Load for 208 A Max in .300 RUM??
Hey guys,

Looking for starting load(s) for the Hornady 208 AMax for the .300 RUM. Retumbo, IMR 7828, RL 25, H1000 etc. Rifle is Win 70 stainless/syn, 26" factory bbl, tupperware stock that I bedded with Steelbed.

Hornady advised to use loads for the Hornady 220 RN. I did load a few 208 A max with 94.0/Retumbo, Fed 215, Rem case, COL 3.610. Seemed a little hot----slight primer cratering, slightly stiff bolt lift, but nice accuracy with 3 in .384 at 100 yds.

Help me out here!!
Thanks,
Jim
