I like whatever works. For me so far that has been Retumbo, H1000, Re22, IMR4831, H4831SC, and N165. Ted Kennedy's car has killed more people than my guns | |||

H-4831SC works here.. | |||

I use the old standby 4350. Mainly 'cause I load for several 30-06 and larger sized cartridges and keep a large quantity on hand. It got me where I wanted to go. @ 2900+fps. I've tried a couple of other powders --I can't remember which ones-- but they didn't improve. | |||

66 grains of Reloder 22 and the 154-160 grain bullet of your choice. It's a classic!

A subject near and dear !. H870 !!. Long live the 7 Rem Mag !!. Which unfortunately is no longer available to most powder enthusiast !. Slightly slower than Retumbo which is also excellent as is IMR 4831. Funny for a guy who " Used " to worked for Hercules powder, now known as Alliant I've never used Reloader !. Nothing wrong with it !. I found it odd that I have and use Bullseye , 2400, Unique , Blue Dot and Herco . However no Reloader series ?. Shoot Straight Know Your Target . ... | |||

I'm surprised that Accurate 3100 hasn't even got a mention. May be different today but in the mid to late 60s H-870 use to depoist some very difficult to remove mica like sustance. Haven't used it for 40 years. If you still can find DP 86 that is almost perfect. roger Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward.

I like Reloader 25. Works well with 160 gr TSX and Accubonds. David | |||

I use Retumbo for my 160-175 gr loads. RL 22 is my powder for 140-150 gr | |||

Roger, I used to mention 3100 on forums but it seems to just be another powder that has fallen out of popularity. Didn't Western Powders buy AA? Where I shop for powders, he won't get any powder from them as they jacked their prices substantially. His cost on 1 and 8 pound containers exceeds his selling price on Hodgdon, IMR, Winchester, Alliant, and Vihtavouri. I was going to try some 2520 in my 30.06 with some Barnes bullets but he said he wouldn't get it. Ted Kennedy's car has killed more people than my guns | |||

R22 is my favorite with IMR7828 following. Couldn't ever get near the velocity with H4831. 3050-3100 is fairly easy to obtain safely in many 7RMs with 160s and either R22 or 7828. Although many have slow bbls and will not come close to those speeds. Reloader | |||

Another vote for 7828. I chronographed a lot of loads in my two 7mmRMs. 7828 gave good accuracy with top velocity. .395 Family Member DRSS, po' boy member Political correctness is nothing but liberal enforced censorship | |||

I like H1000 or H4831 in my 7mm Rem Mag. | |||

Chalk up another vote for Rl22-- I shoot 63 grs RL22 under 160 NAB or TSX's...very accurate. | |||

Before I rebarrelled my 7 Mag, a 160-gr Nosler Partition over H4831 was my go-to load. Shot under .75" for 3 shots off the bench without fail. However, I have never had any luck with any Reloader product in any caliber--and I can't explain it. It's IMR or Hodgdons for me. An old pilot, not a bold pilot, aka "the pig murdering fool" | |||

Remington 700 + 160 gr Sierra + RELOADER 22 = | |||

For many years I have loaded IMR 7828 with 160gr Nosler Partitions using Winchester cases in two rifles having 23" and 24" barrels. Velocities are in the vicinity of 3050 - 3100fps with consistent < 1 MOA accuracy. But my loads would frighten any responsible loading manual editor and will not be repeated here. Vhit. N560 seems to perform about the same, with a little better velocity, but with noticeably greater muzzle flash and report. Experience with R22 & R25 in these rifles has not been favorable. Good luck, and good shooting. Jim | |||

I've been very happy with a stout charge of N-160 and Nosler's 160 grain partition. My 7m/m will fling them at 3050f/s all day long. | |||

If I were starting out today to find a load for my 7 mm Mag, I definitely would use RL-22. But, my loads were developed 20+ years ago, and I just didn't consider RL-22 back then. Don | |||

I ran a similar thread a couple of years ago, took the answe as Reloder 22. Bought a canister, worked up a load under 160 grain Partitions and never looked back. Other than going back to the gunshop and buying the last canister of the same lot they had. Leftists are intellectually vacant, but there is no greater pleasure than tormenting the irrational. | |||

Both my Ruger 77 and Remington 700 when I had 7mmRemMags like H4831. Accuracy was great even though velocity was almost there.

I can't recall ever trying N560 in the 7mag. I may have to go try that. Ted Kennedy's car has killed more people than my guns | |||

Doc, I hope it works for you mate. Next time I chamber a barrel to one, I'm going to try N570 with the heavier bullets.......... Verbera!, Iugula!, Iugula!!! Blair. | |||

My 7mag seems to like RE25 best with 160s although RE22 runs a close secound | |||

RL22 has been the old reliable powder in several 7RM's. A shot not taken is always a miss | |||
