Yup totally agree,

Powders:

Rl26-forget about it may as well not exist
ADI 2225/Retumbo ^^^^^as above^^^^
ADI 2217/H1000- almost as rare but possibly new stock arriving in the next month, if you haven't pre ordered any you possibly may not get any either.


Projectiles:

Hornandy 162ELDM's are a very reliable round and again due to supply demands they are scarce but if you hunt around you should be able to get some.
They are pretty easy to get shooting and generally speaking most rifles seem to have a sweet spot around 2900-3000fps give or take.
Just work up from book minimum loads

Primers;

Personal preference but cci or federal are usually pretty reliable but again also in short supply.


Brass:

Again this is personal preference but Norma is good if not Remington then Winchester,
Stay away from Hornandy as in this cal it seems to fail after 1 or 2 reloads.

Your biggest limitation in the a7 is the relatively short mag length compared to your chamber, but that shouldn't stop you from loading some deadly accurate ammo, but I think in reality your mag won't be long enough to accommodate 180gn pills.

Good luck k I love my rem mag it's devastating
