Gidday, if anyone is using this brew what powder weights are you using. Just in the process of developing a load and wanting to find out what others have had success with. cheers

What caliber?
7mm rem magQuote:

Got some data for this combo, well the soft point version anyway, out of my Lyman 49th edition. H1000 is 2217
Attachment 201287
Greetings @Stefanhope and all,Quote:

Over this period the industry changed from the old copper crusher method of pressure measurement (CUP) to the electronic system (PSI). The PSI measurments give a more accurate indication of peak pressure and also variations in pressure. The loads for some cartridges were toned down and the 7mm Rem mag was one of these. Earlier loads also did not list the actual projectle, another variable. For this reason the latest data, measured in PSI should be most trusted. The data shared by @Rated M for Magnum above is some of this. I have found that the Interlock and the SST give very similar velocities and presumably pressures so the Lyman data may be the best you can get.

Each rifle/ammo combo is different so I am by no means recommending this as a starting point
So does the data posted by RMM have aa mix of copper and 'P' units on the table? I looked at the first column and thought 'thats BS on the pressure for 4350 and H4831 far too low compared to the slow powdersQuote:

The H 4831 max load CUP Converted to PSI is 59717 psi and the IMR 4350 is 60722 psi.
