7mm Rem Mag favorite loads


Recommended Posts

Posted

I picked up a Ruger #1B in 7MM Remington Magnum and I have never loaded for this caliber before. I see no need to re-invent the wheel so I thought I would ask for your loads. Seem to be out of IMR 4831 right now but I have lots of IMR4350, Accurate 4350, H414/WW760. 115, 120 and 140 grain bullets.

Very sweet rifle. I have a #1a in 7x57 and love it. My current do all load for my 7mag is 160 Nosler Accubond with R22. It is accurate in my Encore.

I haven't shot anything in 120-140gr so I can't help you there.

My favorite load is a sierra 100gr fbhp over 67.5gr of IMR4350. Remington cases and winchester primers. Just enough powder to get it accurate, light recoil. Clocks right at 3400 in my rifle. OAL is really short.

My favorite hunting load is a 160gr sierra btsp over an undisclosed amount of H4831. About 63.5 gets it to where it starts tightening up pretty good in my rifle. You could run this bullet with one of the 4350's if you want to. I had good luck accuracy wise with IMR4350, but couldn't get the clocks I wanted. Looks like about 59.9, 60, and 60.1, I had pretty good luck. You can drop any of that down a grain and go with a light crimp for reduced recoil, yet still retain some accuracy.
