Powder Suggestions for 180 ELD-M's in a long throated 7mm WSM

[Hiwayman92]

I'm currently running the 175 ELD-X with 65 grains of RL-26 with good accuracy, but I'm kicking around the 180 ELD-M. I'm looking for real world experience with the 180 on game, and load recipes for the WSM.

Rl33

In a short mag?

Use it in the the 6.5 wsm and the 7wsm.

Rl33 is definitely worth trying, and give the 180 Hybrids a shot also .

you should try Vithavuori N165/N170 powders with "diesel" loads for extended barrel life.

I've got 570, I wonder if that would be too slow for the WSM.

I found this when I was digging around. Can anybody run quickload for me with the 7mm WSM with N570 and a 175-180 or 195 grain bullet? My long throat allows me to seat bullets out over 3", but the 175 ELD-X will only shoot at .130 jump. That's the only bullet I've tried so far.
