25-06 and Retumbo

[tater]

I have a couple of 25-06's that i just couldn't find good loads for 100gr+ bullets in. Tried some Retumbo, and its like magic pixie dust with 110 to 120gr bullets in both.
Nosler seems to be the only bullet manufacturer that publishes loads with Retumbo, and they nailed it.
Be curious what it would do in a fast twist 25-06AI.

I shoot 120gr Hammer HHTs over Retumbo in my 25-06 with 1:8 twist 5R barrel. Off top of my head 2900'ish fps. Thumbs up from me!

Retumbo is soooo slow I'd be curious if you could run a compressed load and still not hit pressure

Did you try 58ish grs of imr 4831? I've loaded for a lot of them and they all have shot 85-100gr pills well.
