I dont have a Barnes manual and wondering if somebody could tell me what they show for their 175 grain X bullet for RE22 and RE25 in 7mm Rem Mag. I sure would appreciate the info.

Thanks
Von

Barnes #3 shows RL-22 at 55-60gr. for 2768fps. There is no listing for RL-25.

I used 58 grs. RL22 with the 175 gr. X to take a moose with one shot in 1998. Hit him high in the lungs at 100 yards+, and he only made it 10 steps or so. Shot one group that went .8" for 3 shots. This is a really long bullet, and could take up some powder space that RL25 would need. I've tried RL25 at 66 grs. with a 175 gr. Partition.

Not from the Barnes manual, but they work:

RL-22 From 46.9 grains to 64.8 grains
CCI-200 Primer

RL-25 From 53.2 grains to 68.4 grains
CCI-200 Primer
