Magnum, Mag Pro, R22,23,25,26, H1000, 4831, 4350 either version.

I have been seeing these locally for around $50/lb. The R-powders have been going up to about $60/lb recently

I fooled around a good bit with the .300 win magnum a few years ago. tried to build a 1000 yard sporting rifle.. Gun could do the job, but the shooter frequently could not!! Ended up with an excellent 700 yard gun with me behind the stock.. Rl22 and a 168 grn hornaday bullet ended up as my most accurate round. Consistently a sub MOA grouping.. Remington 700 Custom shop gun.. FWIW.

Natchez currently has IMR 4831 in stock at $51.99 and no hazmat fee for 2 days. I ordered a couple pounds and after regular shipping and tax it was about $65 to my door.

Thank you nt2. That’s a lot better than building up a whole new load.

Looking like I need to clean off my reloading bench. This has been great for keeping the inside organized at least.

Would Rutumbo powder not be a good choice?


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

For me, Retumbo is too slow to get the velocity unless Im shooting the heavies.

LGS has Retumbo in stock and priced around $50/lb

I really like the Ramshot Magnum in my 7mm STW and have loaded it in a 300 with good results also... but I haven't seen it in a store for a long time. They have all the other Ramshot powders but not Magnum. R25 and 7828SC also work, I've had good accuracy results with the R powders but they are temperature sensitive, and if you are loading 7828SC make sure you are using data for SC not regular 7828 or you are going to get some hot, high pressure loads. I've not tried 4350 in a 300 but load it in the wife's 260 and love it, but it was 20 bucks more expensive than any other powder on the shelf last time I looked at it in a local store.

I’m sticking with the IMR 4831, my gun shoots about like super cub says his shoots. why mess with it. Last elk I shot with it was a cow tag, shot in the back of the head, biggest problem was it blew all the ivory’s out and gave her a wicked looking dragon tongue.
