[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 457519, member: 24624"] I load 180g Bergers for my son's Sendero 7mm Rem Mag. Norma is the best brass I've come up with. I use Fed GM215M primers. We've had good results with both h4831sc and RL22 for velocity and accuracy. We have been hunting with a light load of RL22 averaging 2606fps and killing deer and wild hogs to 550yds with small entry and huge exit wounds. We've loaded it to over 2900fps with little sign of pressure. But, we hunted with the light load because that's the one we had the most dope on when hunting season started. (sub-MOA to 942yds) 168g Bergers work fine also if your rifle prefers them. We also worked up a load for Barnes' 150gr TTSX if you prefer their terminal ballistics theories. We just didn't get a chance to hunt with it this year. Perhaps we'll go shoot another doe before youth season ends. Like Buffalobob pointed out, it may depend on your intended prey. Good luck!!
