72.5 gr of R-22. 162 Amax. Also shoots equally well with the 168 berger with same load. It is a little light but that is what my sendero liked the most.
7mm stw

Has anyone tried imr 8133 for their 7 stw shooting 180 gr berger
I just shot some loads using the 7977 in my 7 Dakota the other day. My last load was 73gr and I still haven't landed on my accuracy node and velocity was only around 2800 i think. I have another load for 175gr ABLR that's 73.2 gr of 7828 and hit 3100 FPS. I am going to try a few more loads probably up to 75gr of the 7977 to try and match the 7828 performance.
I guess my point to the 8133 in the 7 STW is probably going to take a pretty healthy dose. I wanted to try it instead of the 7977 but couldn't find it anywhere.
And I have to jump into 7 STW threads since there isn't hardly anyone else shooting the 7 Dakota.

Use 80.0 grains of h1000 with 160 grain Nosler partitions in one stw and 76.7 grains rel 26 with Berger 180 grain VLD Hunter in another. Both better accuracy than the shooter
