Looking for RETUMBO

[kornbread]

I have couple RUM's and need to get some powder for them. I would like to get 8lb and be done with it but I will buy singles. I'm not going to pay these ridiculous prices but if anybody lays eyes on some I would appreciate it if they gave me a shout.

No alternative powder in mind?

May need to drill down through someother choices and keep a list of them handy.

I like the numbers RETUMBO puts out. I would use RL22 or IMR 7828 but would rather get Retumbo

I was gonna say that I've noticed seeing IMR 7828 at a few on line places recently and it's a good slow powder for that type cartridge. It's all I've ever used in my 257 Weatherby.

I'd appreciate letting me know if any one finds any

Have you tried RL25? Years ago when I got my RUM I tried pretty much all of them, rl22, H1000, 7828, retumbo, norma MRP, and rl25 did the best for me.

kornbread, not sure where you live, but I have Retumbo. Its an opened 8 pounder with little missing. I shot a ladder in 264 WM w/140's. I am extreme west TN in Memphis.

Your 4 hours from me. I just bought 8lb of IMR-7828. If I end up that way I'll get with you. Thanks
