Anybody tried this for pushing 105gr a-max?
Retumbo and R22 are good with the 105's. http://www.realguns.com/loads/243.htm
Never used Reloader 22, but the Retumbo with 105 amaxes shoot verrrrry well.
You may want to check out the following link, also. I don't know where he came upQuote:

I have a Savage 243 w the 9.25 twist,
Which powder and amount will push the 105's out to 600yds?
The Double basesd powders in the .243 will give less throat erosion. Try the retumbo with the 105, it shot well for me out to 600. I put a .243 together with a friend 2 months ago and he is using H1000 and 105 amax out to 640 accuretely. The Retumbo is a little more speed.
The 105 A-Max will do 1000 yards and still maintain supersonic velocity. Go for it! ;D
