I've had excellent results with Accubonds in the 7mag. I used them on everything from elk to coyotes with excellent results. I believe Winchester makes loaded ammo with the accubond bullets. Good luck with it, I like the 7mag for big game hunting.

I have run 140's in my 7Mag but it really shines with 160's at just under 3000 fps. I have made the switch to a better bullet in years past and highly recommend the Accubond.

HSM custom ammo with 168 Berger VLD. This ammo uses the same components I do with this same bullet. Shoots very well.

Nolser custom ammo with accubond, or Federal factory with accubond would be an excellent choice. A bit spensive but you get what you pay for.

Federal's site.

Winchester's site. Accubond/combined technology

Remington's site. 150 Swift Scirocco...an excellent choice for deer. Their accutip would be a good choice too.

My first choice would probably be the 168 Berger ammo. It is cheaper, you get a few more grains of bullet weight, and the bullet has the best BC of the lot. Second choice would be one of the Accubonds. I'm pretty sure HSM uses bulk H1000 powder based on some folks I know who use it. One of the best powders for the 7mag.

The Federal Premium load with the 160gr Accubond does .35 in my Blaser. I don't handload for the 7 Rem Mag any more...no need!

Ditto ; 140 150 160 any will do nicely on Muley ; Not sure I would venture southward these days .
