[QUOTE="epoletna, post: 1753403, member: 87371"] Yes, hand loaded ammo will be harder hitting and flatter than what you are buying over the counter for the 7mm Mauser. And yes, it does require a bit of a financial outlay at the beginning. If you like the first point but not the second, look into having a friend (who already reloads) load up some ammo for you. I have done this for others, the usual agreement being that they supply the dies, powder and primers, and I return the ammo loaded to their specifications. This also requires you to know a little about what performance you are looking for (safely) and what powder/bullet combination you want. As for whether or not your rifle will handle stiffer loads, post a photo of the rifle (action) so we can figure out what you are shooting. Bottom line is, the 7 mm Mauser is a fine cartridge for most American game animals. [/QUOTE]
