[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1366274, member: 68875"] Powder choice is everything with a 7RM. I run a leisurely 2996fps with a 180 Hybrid over H1000 out of my 26" 1:8.5" 7RM. I will be starting load development trying RL26 after I get back from elk hunting however. I killed my big bull this year at 662 with that combo. I have a .280AI that is pushing a 175 Elite Hunter over RL23 @ 2975fps from a 26" 1:9". Which is why I will be trying for some more speed frolm my 7RM. If you have a .280AI, go for a heavier bullet over RL23 or RL26 to get you close to 7RM performance, and rebarrel to .300WM 26" 1:10"or 1:9". Push a 215 or 230 over RL26 or RL33 to wring as much out of it as you can. [/QUOTE]
