[QUOTE="BIG MO, post: 333508, member: 18994"] The 7mm rem mag is a bad mammer jammer. Run a ballistics chart on a 180 berger @3000fps out to 1000yds. It is still cranking along @1800fps with 1300ftlbs of energy @1000. That is probably more than a .44mag at the muzzle. It is a tough round to beat without going ultra magnum. I am currently running RL 22 with the 180 Berger @3000fps with nice results. Depending on the nature of your particular rifle, it would not be unreasonable to find a load pushing a 160 pill to 3100 without abusing the brass. Personally, testing with different powders, bullets, etc searching for that load that puts a big smile on my face is probably my favorite part of the whole process. Enjoy the process. I promise you there is a load out there that you're Big 7 is going to love. Get after it! Welcome to Long Range Hunting. Its great to have you aboard! [/QUOTE]
