Do you guys have any good loads using imr7828 and the 160 accubonds for a 7mm rem mag, looking for 3000-3100 fps out of a 26" tube?
Thanks

Elmer, work up to 65gr or a bit more if your rifle can handle it. Best powder I have used for several caliber in the 7mm bore.

I agree with Fred. 7828 is a good powder for the 7mag. In a 24" MKX I use just over the max Nosler lists for the 160Part. My OAL is 3.37" and I'm just shy of 3100. If you use 160Part loads keep in mind the Accubond is .13" longer. So the loads might be a little hotter with the Accubond.


As usual just my $.02
