Managed to load and try out 195gr Berger. Out of my 7mm mag custom.
Loaded as follows.
New norma brass, federal GM 215 match primer, trimmed case 2.493, seated bullets all the same ogive 2.835 5k off the lands.
Retumbo 68gr 5 shots av speed 2887 mv 10 fps.
Retumbo 68.4gr 5 shots av speed 2895 mv 9 fps. It really liked this load. Measure @100yards .495
Retumbo 69gr av speed 2930 mv 15 fps.
All two groups were within an inch, except 68.4 gr.
When time slows down I would test out to 350yd
