RAm Loads for 7MM Bench Rest

Ferret Master · Post by **Ferret Master** » Fri Mar 22, 2013 5:30 pm

I have been working with the 7MM BR for a while now and have found a very accurate load for the 130 SMK using 2230 powder but have struck out using the 2230 powder for the 168's or 162's. They give very low SD but just aren't very accurate at 500. The velocity comes in at 2365 for the 168 and 2375 for the 162's. Does anyone have any pet loads for either of these bullets that they would be willing to share? I have been shooting Moly bullets but I could switch, not hung up on moly. The barrel is a Krieger with a 1-7.75 twist. I have a tight neck chamber, turn case necks, ream flash holes and all the other stuff usually done to insure long range accuracy. The run out on loaded rounds .001 or less.
Thanks,
Ferret Master

Thanks for the reply. Which primer have you found to work best with this load?
