Hi everyone,
I am trying to get my hands on some 162g Amax prgectiles for my 7mm mag. I know how rare they are at the moment so I have been trying a number of different projectiles but am struggling to get the same results.
I have pre ordered some Amax's from Gun works which they hope to have buy the end of next month but I'm running low and if anyone has some for sale Id consider buying some off you. Or does anyone know someone who may have some?
Try Terminator products.
I know he had a heap and if your lucky may still have some.

Are there any 7mm users that don't rely on amaxs? Almost seems like a reason why not to buy a 7mm :yaeh am not durnk:
The 150g Nosler Ballistic Tip is a solid performer and with its stubbier ogive is often far more accurate in rifles that don't like the amax.
The lesser BC value needs a few more clicks on the elevation dial, they drop deer at 1100 yrds for us when flung at 3100 fps, easy velocity in a saum or rem mag.
168 bergers work well, I couldn't tell the difference between the 162 amax or the berger in my 7mm mag.
Not many 168 Bergers around either....Quote:

I've been using SST's. Haven't shot any animals past 400 at this stage but otherwise they seem acceptable.

I never try the Berger's or Sierra's yet but I am keen on the 168gr.
Maybe sometime soon.
while the Bc's aren't as flash the Hornady SST or the Nosler BT both work well at extended ranges.
i have a sendero that loves the 180 VLD burgers and 162SST give them a try
Gunworks have the 162 amax turning up at the end of the month, early September. So give them a ring or your local shop.
Gunworks are taking preorders and prepaying as well..... $67 or $69 a box.....
Put my order in for 3 boxes.....

I'm happy to pass these on to a deserving bar@#ad if they PM me their details. I don't have 7mm anything so might as well go to a good home.
Tried the 168 Bergers a while back, couldn't get them to shoot in my 7 RM. So second option was AMAXs, which worked a treat. Been trying to get some more for ages, no luck. Fortunately I still have a few left. Damn primers are the problem now! Always something..
yes i do. Got them back in stock tomorrow 06-868-7284 Cheers Andy
just arrived instore today
Does anyone got the hands in the "shipment" yet? If yes, how much for the box?Quote:

After the awesome news about the amax's, here come my next enquire.
Where can I find Federal Match Primers for Large Magnum rifles 215M? I have enough of the "normal" primers but looking forward for Match ones in a reasonable price.
Cheers
How many you want? I have fed mag primers and a-Max's in stock now too. PM or email me if you are keen.Quote:
