Trying IMR8133

[FOTIS]

in the 6.5 Bee and 30-378 soon.

Fotis: what burn rate is that similar to?

 

[FOTIS]

A little slower than retumbo

 

[69gto]

Thank you.

 

[RL338]

What bullets are you going to try on the 30-378?

 

[FOTIS]

175 Barnes lrx 200 AccuBond

 

[OU812]

175 Barnes lrx 200 AccuBond

Wonder how it would do in a 300 rum With a 200 AccuBond?

 

[FOTIS]

Just fine I bet. Very stable very clean low sd.... so they say anyway I haven't tried it yet

 

[SJB358]

I’ll be watching as that Retumbo, 33 and maybe this 8133 are pretty danged good in the 7 Mashburn with the heavier stuff.

 

[JD338]

Might be a good one to try in the 338 RUM

What would the opinion be on running 8133 behind the 110gr AccuBond in the 25-06 ? The nosler site shows a loading using rotumbo, just wondering if the 8133 might be bit slower burning and maybe cause a problem?

I love 8133 it’s my go to for 300RUM and my soon to bring home 30-378 Weatherby mag. With 215m primers I can get my Es to single digits and being in MN I have yet to have an issue with temp swing

Very very nice, great shooting. I'll have to give it a go and see how my rum likes it.

mine is a custom 300 rum with a 1/7 twist 25” McGowan barrel so result might be way different

Mine is a 1-10 and at the elevation I'm at a 230 is marginal for stabilization according to Berger site. I usually run 200 accubonds.

I love it in my 300 RUM. Pushes 215gr berger’s to 3140 FPS.
