    Checked my loading manuals and no data for retumbo powder with any bullet weight. I load AR 2213 SC ( 73 grs ) with the 178 gr ELD X bullet for 3003 fps. In the 10th edition Hornady book they list 73.8 grs of H4831 (AR 2213 SC) as Max for 2900 fps.
    RL 26 at 79.8 grs with that bullet is rated at 3100 fps. RL 22, 25, Hybrid 100V all produce around 3000fps.
