[QUOTE="7stw, post: 595715, member: 22854"] I would start with about 66.5grains of h1000. I had really good luck with the WLR Winchester primers. These are the hottest STD. Primer on the market. I was getting fliers with all the rest. My seating depth is 3.336. That puts me .about 35 thousandths off the riflings. You have headroom with the powder, and I think you can go to about 68 or 69 grains. My sweet spot is 67.5. Velocity is 2977. One thing about a 7mag is that you always do not have to use mag primers. The case size is on the edge of STD, and full blown size where you you NEED the magprimer. My 700p is very tight chambered. As far as the book goes, I have headroom on the charge amount, but my gun says no more. The gun is ALWAYS the deciding factor as to how much, or enough. Have fun, it is a great combo, BC, decent speed, downrange energy, etc. AIM SMALL,MISS SMALLlightbulbgun). 7STW [/QUOTE]
