LOL should be great for the 300 RUM. It is very close to retumbo in burning rate.

Newer Hornady and Nolser manuals show some loads with it. Seems pretty close to US-869.

Large capacity, overbore cartridges, which I think Fotis has a few of ('Bees?)

Searched thru the Western Power manual (V8.0) and it lists 9 cartridges that they have data for - starting with the .257 Bee and ending with the .338 Lapua. It has data for the 6.5-284 (140-142 gr), which surprises me.

That’s what I am thinking. I’m using 570 right now.

Has anyone tried this in any weatherby cartridges besides the 257?
