| I used the 145 Speer BTails and RE 19, shot very well. Middle of the road load, not full out. Out of a Sako L61. Haven't shot a game animal with it. |

| speers 145 grand-slam will work fine in your 7mag,shot e''m in my ex 7mag a-bolt and they held up great, try r-22 or imr 4831 or imr -4350,you want a little faster burning powder with a liter bullet, good luck...jjmp |

| You made an excellent choice for deer.I have used the 145gr GrandSlams in my 7mag for over ten years now and have been very pleased with them.I have mine loaded with 65.3gr of IMR 4350 and it chronographs out at 3200fps and I get 1/2" groups with them too.This bullet hits very hard,nearly always instant kills,holds together very well and I have pole-axed whitetails out to 300yards with them.If you do your part,they will not fail you.Good Luck. |
