BriceN165 in 7mm Rem Mag
Has anyone tried this? Results? Charge weight? I'll soon be doing load development for a new barrel. Starting with 160 gr TSX FB. Barnes lists N165 as the most accurate powder. I note that load density is around 80-84%.
I've read some reports recently that shooters are getting good results with TSX's .050 or more off the lands. You?

AtkinsonI tried it with 150 gr. bullets and got 3072 FPS, which I consider very slow..67 grs. was absolute max. I found many powders that were better. The old standbys like IMR-4350 and 4831 got me almost 3300 FPS, as did RL-22 and 25..
