[QUOTE="SansSouci, post: 1240489, member: 84520"] The 7MM Rem Mag is an amazing cartridge. As we know, it was designed to be a long range elk cartridge. It hasn't disappointed hunters. I don't recall of a 7MM Rem Mag that wasn't a shooter. It seems to be an inherently accurate cartridge. I rely upon loading data from the 70's. The 7MM Rem Mag will achieve advertised velocities if hunters hand load. My 7MM Rem Mag has a 24" barrel, and I have no problem getting advertised velocities. My 7MM Rem Mag seems to shoot better when it approaches max loads. I'm not concerned with blazing velocity. I'm more concerned with accuracy. Another fantastic aspect of the 7MM Rem Mag is many powders work well with it. The slowest powder I've used is RL-22, the fastest is IMR-4350. I'd be surprised if H-4831 didn't work in a 7MM Rem Mag. While I think that the 7MM Rem Mag is one our better cartridges for all North American big game, I'm not sure if I'll again hunt with mine. Mine is heavy. I'm thinking of using my .270 for everything. I like lightweight rifles where air is paper-thin. [/QUOTE]
