[QUOTE="Wendog, post: 2149687, member: 111400"] Hey everyone. I've been a silent browser of this forum for a long time. I can kill hours a day just reading posts and learning a lot. I just recently have started searching for my max charge weight for my 7mm using H4831 and the 162gr ELD-X. I wanted to use H1000 but they were out when I was buying and now a days may be an impossible find. I have been using the Hornady 10th Edition for my data. They are listing 59.7gr as max and I should see 2800FPS. I've been increasing my charge weight by .2gr. I started around 56g and have just tested my latest loads that are up around the high end of 62gr. Sorry Don't have my data book with me. I haven't tested my latest batch but they are ranging from 63.1gr and up to 64.5gr. I've just hit 2800fps at the top of my last string, being around 62.9gr. With all that said I have yet to see any pressure signs. primers all look pretty much the same from where I first started. Haven's had a heavy bolt lift, cases all look fine.. I feel I am safe to keep going, just looking for some input on what some other more experienced people may think/feel. Has anyone else seen similar data with that powder combo? thanks in advance.
