Hi all this is my first post
I have just purchased a Remington 700 xcr and I am looking for loading data for 7mmm Rum
using reloader 22 & 25 any help would be appreciated.

Sorry oz, I don;t shoot a 7mmRUM but I do shoot a 7mmDakota, just abit shorter. Try the Alliant website. You can also use 7mmWby or 7STW data & work up. IMO, the 7mmRUM is way over bore & your best bet will probably be w/ RL25. I like IMR7828 in my 7mmDakota, just a bit slower than RL22. Good luck.

I own a 7 RUM in a model 700 sendero. I've tried Barnes, Nosler Partitions, Sierra & Speer bullets with variuos powders with less than desireable results(even though I did shoot an Elk @ 358yds with a 175gr Grand Slam)until a tried the 150gr Swift Scirroco. The first group I shot with 82.5gr of H4831 was 3/4" @ 100yds. That's not too bad for a factory hunting rifle. I want to play around with the H4831 some more and also try some RL22 & RL25. The Scirrocco bullets are kinda expensive(~$45/100)but they work goog for me. Hope this helps.........Possum

FWIW PH, I thinkl H4831 is too fast for best results in the bi RUM case. Your vel. are likely to little faster than a 7remmag.

H1000 or RL25, retumbo seemed too slow with a 162gr a-max.

Thanks to all who replied .I picked up the rifle today together with a h-s stock,4-12vx2 scope will fit it all up this weekend and see how it shoots.

Shot the gun on sunday,fired five 3shot groups
avg .571" used Remington factory ammo 140gr nosler partions.very happy with results
