7mm Rem Mag need loads/velocities for 140, 160, and 175 bullets
i dont know where to start here but was curious whats worked for you guys.

what kind of speeds are you getting out of 140, 160, and 175gr bullets?

Trying the 140 tipped TSX first with RL-22 and IMR 4350...

My powder of choice for the 7mm Rem. Mag. is RL 22. It gives great accuracy with both 160 and 140 grain bullets.

You should get 3200 fps with 140's, 3050 with 160's and 2900 with 175's. I like RL22 in my old Sako, but others seem to do well with 7828. Mine takes so much more powder than some that I don't want to even tell you my load. I shoot almost always 160-175's in the 7Mag.


A shot not taken is always a miss

My rifle has a 25" barrel I like
RL 22 w/ 140's for 3250-3300 chrono'd
Retumbo w/ 160's and 175's 3050 and 2950.
I have tried IMR7828 but didn't get the accuracy others have.
