Default RE: .338 RUM

Thanks for the replys and info guys. I did get a hold of the Hornady loading data. I have been using that for now and loaded all the suggested weights with H-1000 and 225 gr interlock SP bullets and Remington 9 1/2M primmers. I got best results with 89.5 grains where at 100 yards I had 3 holes touching. The published velocity for this was 2800 and I shot one through a chronograph a guy at the range had and got 2760. I was amazed at what this gun can do and what little recoil it has compared to what I though it would be. I am going to try to get some accubonds this week and load them up as I leave for an elk trip in a month. I have heard that RL-19 would be better than RL-22. What do you guys think?
