james stambough7MM Rem Mag 162gr SST
tried this bullet out because the price for 100 of them would be hard to beat.
WW case
CCI 250 primer
61 grains RL22
3.316 OAL
at 160 yards my hunting buddy put 3 shots into .58 inch. (he is much a better
shot than i am.) no pressure signs. bolt lift was easy,no extractor or ejector marks
primers moderatly flat. similar to factory primers. rifle is a rem 700 adl synthetic
with a redfield 3x9 illuminator. comments are welcome and appreciated. THANKS!!!
skin that one and i'll go get you another one!
I haven't used a 162gr bullet in my 7mmRemMag yet but have used 140gr's.
I also use RL22.
Great powder, I'm quite pleased w/the results!!!
