I built a 6.5x47L, 16" "deer blind gun". No muzzle brake. 130 Hybrids @2600fps. KRG chassis. Very convenient to carry and move around. Light recoil. Accurate.

I concur. I have both, 18". 180 hybrids 2700 from the SS. Building 300 Mega now. Will be for f-class AND 18" pack gun

LMAO

Hey Jake Just as a reference for you, and I think you can get to 2850, I'm running 180 Hybrids over IMR7828SSC in the 7SS (Serman Short), also 18" barrel. 60.2gr charge is getting me 2700+ speeds. I can go hotter, but I'm very accurate right there and it does what I need it to do... Hope...

Only if Hornady would come out with a 7mm Creedmoor

Someone would just wanna make it better.

So, I have had a 264wm. Decent MTU profile ss barrel. I couldn't get it to shoot under 1 moa. Not cool in my opinion. I set the barrel back an inch and rechambered with a different reamer - still couldn't tighten up my groups. Little better but not ideal. I rechambered it to 26 Nosler...

All good coyotezapper!

That's fair. Well, being a handloader I know I could do it. But, instead of saying that I thought an old quote from well respected forum would suffice. We have gotten off track here. Sorry I added to the detour. The man was just posting a great pic and story but just happened to step on...

2890 is definitely doable. Certainly a hand load. Great shot! Cool story. Keep it up! Here's an old thread from another respected forum:

Here are some random 7Max ladder test pics. The pic w/o my scribble is where I finally got it. All with 180 Scenars and cci 250's. H1000 is the shtuff. Ramshot Magnum is great too. I understand the Reloader powders are great, but down here where I live the temp swings, usually in the hots...

This pic was the 7ss, 18" barrel (Krieger 4-groove), vais brake, 60.2 g imr7828ssc, 180 hybrid, from a backpack "rest". I built a 7 Max on a long action with the same performance using H1000. SO easy to load for. My son is running the 6.5ss, 156 eol, H1000, sub 1/4" groups, suppressed. His is...

Okay, so that's a no on the 300 Mega load data. That's okay, brass will be here this week, dies next week, barrel and reamer week after that. I recently cut my 7ss Krieger barrel down to 18" from 24" to cut weight and make it easier to swing around in a small texas deer blind. Weight reduction...

Idaho Tracker, are you the man who put the sherman load spreadsheet together? Thanks for that. I'm about to build a 300 Mega F-Classer and wanted to know if you have any loads for a 208 grainish bullet. Also, I have some load data to share for the 7ss and 6.5ss. Thanks for your time.
