Trying to work up a load for my 7mm Rem Mag. using Reloader 26 as it is supposed to be non temperature sensitive, started at 65gr and am up to 67gr with no pressure signs and pumping out 3030fps but I can't get it to group, 2" group at 200yds is the best I can get. I loaded Reloader 25 in the past that shot dots but is very temperature sensitive as I missed to nice deer low at 300yds in 20 degree weather and it wasn't the guy pulling the trigger. Found out in that weather it was shooting 8" low at 300yds. I am loading .003 off the lands like I did with the RL 25. Anyone have any experience with that powder and bullet?
 
Temperature swing made it hit 8" low at 300 yards? How much velocity change is that?
Don't know velocity change we were in the field. Just put a target out at 300yds and shot low 8"at 300. Checked 300yd 0 when we got there temp was 57 degrees and was right on.
