For the 8 mag w/180 (I used the Barnes TSX bullet) RL17 did come up. It starts at about 72g and goes to a max of 77g.

Good luck.
 
Thanx Storm,the 7mag is listed on the link above but for some reason they butchered the 150 gr load data,did they give a max FPS on the 8 mag load?gun)
 
Re: Load data HELP!

Quickload came up with 74.1g of RL17 for the 180 TSX at 58403 psi (max is 66717 psi) and a velocity of 3079 f/s with a 24 inch barrel. If I ran the max psi it shows a velocity of 3195 f/s at pressure of 66554 psi.

Check the Nosler site they have a good starting loads data sheet for the 7mag.

I allways had good luck with the H 4831 for 1000 yrd matches .

65.5 grs of H4831 with a 168gr SMK @ 3152 ft/sec was my most accurate load (Hot but not
to hot).

And now with H4831sc it is easer to measure.

I have the brand new Nosler book,no data for RL 17 under 8mag or 7 mag.

Did it give you max grains for max pressure?
