For powder in my 300 Rem Ultra Mag I use H1000. Using that I can get Max loads. | |||

I HAVE FOUND H1000 TO BE A GOOD POWDER FOR THE 7MM ULTRA, BUT JUST CAUSE I COULD, WANTED TO TRY RETUMBO AND WAS VERY WELL PLEASED. I FOUND THAT WITH THE SLOWER BURN RATE MORE POWDER ALSO MEANT LESS AIR VOID WHICH HAS A TENDENCY TO IMPROVE ACCURACY ! | |||

Unfortunately, VV's website tops out with a 200 gr bullet with their load data. They list 83 gr as a min for the 200, so, you'll likely be under that considerably for a 240 to start. Oh, and welcome to AR. I see this is your first post. Ted Kennedy's car has killed more people than my guns | |||

WC-872 and Hogdons US-869 work well with that heavy weight _____________________________________________________ A 9mm may expand to a larger diameter, but a 45 ain't going to shrink Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened. - Winston Churchill | |||

We use 180gr barnes tsx with Retumbo and it shoots great | |||

180gr tsx and r-25 produces 3380fps and averages 5/8" groups at 100 yards. | |||
