7mm RM Best load / bullet for 9.5 twist

[alaskan9974]

Ordered a Bergara Wilderness Terrain in 7mm RM, ballistics look pretty similar to my 6.5 PRC's but brass and bullets for it seem much easier to find right now. I am approaching 4 reloads each on my 6.5 prc brass and haven't found more to order yet.

Looking for a starting point for it, I have a lot of RL23, H4350, and H1000. I also ordered some 163 ELDx and 168 Berger VLD's. Will the VLD's fit in the mag?

For the vlds fitting in the mag that makes a difference on the gun, what mag, also how long of a throat you have. Do you need to use these out of mag length? If so maybe try the Berger hybrid hunter. they are more of a hybrid and seat them to mag length and work up a load.

3.775" for the Bergara mag, looks like some AICS mags can go a bit longer. My hodgdon book shows I will have .250" of mag space if I load to book figures with 162's.

I was hoping someone had worked up a load in this rifle before and how they fit. Will see how everything fits together when the bullets come in.
