I use Retumbo under 200 grain Nosler partitions in my Remington. I get well over 3,000 fps with excellent accuracy.

My boss uses IMR 7828 for best results in his 300 RUM.

Retumbo works better than anything else I have used with my 300 RUM.

H1000 & IMR7828 here as well. I've found decent 300RUM loads for 130gr Barnes TSX's up to 220gr Partitions w/ both in a stock Rem 700.
