Good to know. Ill have another play in a bit
There was a mag. fit issue that didn't look like being resolved. The cartridge was my preference but I couldn't spring for a semi-custom.
I've loaded up a ladder with speer btsp and will seat the elds out where they belong and single feed them at a later date.
The 7RM is replacing a 6.5PRC that I was unhappy with so is more cartridge...
Cool thanks Chris, the quickload data validates the Hornady load data as far as charge weight and pressure are concerned. That Hornady book sure is a crazy way to present data though as it makes the...
Thanks man, that is commensurate with the data that I have. I'm starting at 60.5gr and 3.340.
Apart from my 284win experience I have loaded elds in 260rem and 6.5 x 55 to good effect as I've not...
Thanks, but that doesn't help me
Could a kind soul run loads through quickload please.
7RM hornady162eld x 60.5gr imr4831 24inch barrel. Unknown jump.
And the same with 162gr Hornady btsp.
Much appreciated.
I haven't measured the chamber but it's a 24inch barrel
Yes, that makes sense. I might buy the Hornady book so I can have a proper squizz.
The hogdon data shows max load at 61.8 which would make my start load of 60.5 near max on hornadys book.
Also velocity is 2877 on hogdon at that and 3000 on Hornady at 60.6gr.
Quite a discrepancy....
Sweet man, that's the same as the btsp pill then. All good as I'm loaded 50thou over that length.
Cheers
I would not it if need be. Just wondering if people are loading them in std mag. Anyone have data or a measurement of the Hornady precision factory ammo?
Hi, got a 7RM tikka and have loaded up some 162eld x to mag fit at 3.34 COAL. Got a pretty mild charge of imr4831.
Still seems a bit deeper into the cartridge than id like.
What COAL are others...
