[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 275893, member: 4885"] I've been shooting/reloading for the 7mm Rem Mag for 30+ years. The 2 most accurate bullets I've found for both of my Rem 700's are the 162gr A-Max and the 160gr Nosler Accubond. I've shot many sub .3moa groups with them both (as small as .15moa). I've tried many different powder and primer combinations. The best powder I've found so far is RL-22. From a primer perspective, I have always found better consistency/accuracy with standard large rifle primers instead of the oft recommended Large Rifle Magnum primers. I'd start with a jump of between .015" and .020". I drive the above bullets at just over 3000fps. I use Norma brass only for the 7mmRM. I also neck size only when possible and only resize about 3/4's of the neck to help keep everything centered. I also reload it as if it had no belt (allow it to headspace off the shoulder), thus only the neck size, until I have to push the shoulder back around .001" HTH, AJ [/QUOTE]
