I've had excellent results using Retumbo and 225 Barnes Tripple Shocks.
One 9 foot Brown bear and one 61' Alaska moose, moore to come.

That sure perked my interest seeing I just fired the one I did for the neighbor yesterday. 2 shots at 50 yards to sight the scope and the first one at 100 yards was 2 1/2 inches high, adjusted for that and put the next 4 into one big hole.... even after cleaning after each shot....
225 Accubond -015 off the rifling-90 grains of RL-22- Federal 215 M's---
Just shy of 3150 fps with a 27 inch Pac-Nor....
Now to get serious with hunting up a good load for it

I'm using 225g Accubonds, 98g of H1000, Fed 215m primers. Seated to fit in the mag.

Put them in the same hole with my stock Remington 700 LH LSS.

Not as fast as I can push them, but can't argue with that accuracy.
