Has anyone used this powder in the 7mm Dakota with 180 bergers or the 168 bergers?
How was your speed and accuracy?
And what were your startiing loads?
Thanks

I shoot a 7mmDakota but haven't even thought of RL17. I doubt your vel. will be much better than factory 7rm ammo using such a fast powder. RL22, RL25, yes, especially w/ heavier bullets like that. My go to powder for 160gr bullets in the 7mmDakota is IMR7828.
