[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1574139, member: 87243"] I totally understand accuracy comes first, but unless you have an 18" barrel, 2880 with a 168 is pretty darned slow in a 7 mag. With Reloder 26 we are shooting 180's at 3060 from a 26" factory Remington, another 24" factory Remington 7mm mag is shooting 175's at 2990 with H-1000, another 24" Browning 7mm mag I load for shoots 168 vld's at 3075 with H1000, another Ruger 24" 7mm mag I load for shoots 168 vld's at 3125 fps with RL26, and the last Remington 26" 7mm mag I load for shoots 168 vld's at 3050 with H-4831sc, and all of these have at least 3 loads on brass and are holding up fine. Throw a 180 in your 7mm with H1000, Retumbo or especially Reloder 26, and your numbers will change significantly. However, the 170 EOL at 3000 fps is by no means any slouch. [/QUOTE]
