Working Load for 7mm RM not working for me...

[Nandy]

Thanks for the recommendation. For now I am only going to try the powders I have in hand. By know I have been recommended every powder that is built out there and as you can imagine, trying all that will take so much time and a lot of money. rl-19 is doing fine. will still try other rl-22 and h1000 combinations.

Thanks!

Try 140gr. Sierra Pro-Hunters and the Rl-19. If a gun won't shoot a Ballistic Tip or an Accubond it will usually like the Pro-Hunter.

Run the H-1000 from 67-71 grains with the Bergers. Mine likes 67.6, but I have a shorter barrel than you and was getting incomplete powder burn. You should find a good node around 69-70 grains.
