[QUOTE="jesse71, post: 225065, member: 12467"] Thanks for the information I didn't know Berger made a 140grn for the 7mm. I will investigate availabillity.:) The reason I am trying a 120 Barnes load is I have found the Nosler 140 grn BT quite explosive on the Chamois we have in this country. Nice neat hole on entry and a fist sized hole on exit. They tend not to run to far though. I have had better results with the 140 Accubond but thought I would try the Barnes, (as they are quite often raved about) and go to a lighter bullet. Using 87.6-87.8 grns H1000 (ADI AR2217) I have achieved groups of 18-20mm(3 shots) @ 100m using Remington brass,CCI 250 primers. I have had keyhole groups with both the Noslers using the same but with 83.5grns of H1000. I am yet to chrony these loads as I do not own one and usually load for most accurate load. I have found I can get hold of RE22 and I looking at trying some of this over a chrony of a friend along with my existing loads. [/QUOTE]
