[QUOTE="RevJim, post: 1200354, member: 86754"] I use 77.5gr of Reloder 33, Fed 215M primers, WW cases and the Sierra 175BT. I get 3007fps average from my 26" barrel 7mm Rem Mag into .60". Its Good stuff. Start lower with your bullet, of course, but its the first powder I found that would break the 3000fps barrier with a 175 anything "from my rifle". Mine is a simple, but cherried Remington 700 with a ss factory barrel. I get 3150 with R26 and the Sierra 165 BTHP! Interestingly enough, before I found R26, I was doing good to get 2950 with any kind of accuracy with several powders. To add insult to injury, at the same time I was working with my 24" bbl 338 Fed and the Barnes 160TTSX and got over 3000fps with TAC! I could "replace" my 7mm mag with my 338 Fed for 99.9% of the way I hunt any more, ha. [/QUOTE]
