[QUOTE="Hawk in WY, post: 1087207, member: 70947"] The Berger manual is one I don't have. Those data are very helpful. Thank you. The 72.5 grain IMR 7828 load for the 168 grain Barnes LRX came from careful study of the data in the Hornady Seventh Edition where it is well below max for 162 and 175 grain bullets. I also found an older article from Barnes, possibly from an earlier manual, which indicated 72.5 grains should have been below max. The latest Barnes manual does not have 7mm Dakota data. It felt on the warm side but no obvious signs of extreme pressure. If I try 7828 again, I will use the Berger data. What does the Berger manual say for 150 grain bullets? I'm looking for a Barnes 145 gr. LRX load. All input much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
