I'm new here so I like to say Hello. I have owned a Remington 7mm stw for two years now. I would like to know about other stw owners what is your favorite load? Thank you!!

I bought a 7mm STW this summer, and have had good luck with Hornady 139 gr. SST bullets, using a federal Magnum primer, and 71.7 grains of H4895. This load is a fairly light one, getting around 3250 fps, but it is working well on SD whitetails.

Welcome Mr STW,

I like H1000 and a 180 gr Berger, another combo that worked well for me was was H4831SC and 168 Sierra MK.

I had my STW built as a long range rig. It weighs in at around 18lbs, wears a 8-32 Burris signature scope. Very accurate rifle.

FWIW, again welcome.

Jim

My previous post included an error. I use H4831 in my STW, not H4895. I bought some BMG powder today, and am going to do some experimenting.
