Hi guys, I'm somewhat newer to reloading.
My rifle is a savage 111 trophy hunter xp chambered in 7mm RM factory action and barrel (9.5 twist)
My bullet selection for this time and development is the hornady eldx 162 grain
I've been working with (I wanted hodgdon) imr 7828
Temperature range is a factor for my hunting regions I'm in az in hot regions or hunt up north in the cold or maine/Wyoming
My primer selection is federal premium GM215M
I do have a bunch of factory once fired federal winchester super and Remington
New brass I have a bag of hornady
The powders that make the list for me are (probably going to be between the first two)
Hodgdon 4350
Hodgdon retumbo
Hodgdon 4831
H1000
The brass I have I don't mind using because I've seen 9 million inconsistent reviews on brass all besides norma which I cant seem to find otherwise that would be it... and nosler is available but spans the spectrum on feedback
So given my info and direction im looking for accuracy not for inside 400 or 600 yards but beyond .... specifically on these two topics what are your opinions for primarily powder and I'd like to hear brass suggestions
