[QUOTE="LouBoyd, post: 430364, member: 9253"] TXSendero: 168 Berger VLD. (no moly) OAL 3.433, 7mm RM. 26" barrel. Hodgdon H1000. Using your input data and otherwise using Quickload database defaults: Case fill - 102% (compressed load) 69.47 grain peak pressure 54161 psi 87% SAAMI max Muz V 2935 fps Muz P 12051 psi 102% is arbitrary for a maximum compressed load. I like to keep case fills between 95% and 98% where possible. In my opinion H1000 is a bit burning for this combination of bullet, cartridge, and seating depth. It's certainly usable but it would not be my first choice. My choice is IMR-7828 for shooting 168 Bergers from my 7mm Rem Mag 26" barrel Win 70 Laredo. It works well for me. No one (including Quickload) can tell you what load will give best accuracy in your rifle but it can greatly reduce the testing of combinations which aren't likely to give good results. [/QUOTE]
