[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 1638730"] OK. So I use CCI primers all the way around. I don't like the idea of a temp sensitive powder. For a long time, I stuck with IMR4350 as a good balance of velocity specs and efficiency (rarely are my loads compressed) and saw very little sensitivity thru our hot Summers and very cold late Falls. I guess I'll further research the Alliant data. I am still looking at the Hodgdon charge range of 61.0 - 65.0gn for IMR4350 and 150gn Win SP bullet at 3120fps muzzle velocity, vs the other several published specs. I think it is clear that data for this cartridge is less published and more of what reloaders are finding. I don't mean to belittle anyone's love of Nosler, but again, I find their reload data somewhat anemic. I wouldn't characterize my loading as hot but it should be easy for the 7wsm to flop a 150gn bullet at 3200fps, IMO. [/QUOTE]
