    Rl22 7mm rem

    Been searching for info and found 65grn of rl22 and 160grn projectile. So would it be safe to say start at 63 and work up using a 162eldm hornady brass and cci 250 primers. I was using 69.5 of rl25 but run out. thanks for the help team

    Alliant suggest reducing their listed loads by 10% to establish a starting load. I think you will be ok to treat the 162gn as a 160gn for starting load purposes.

    I have used 64 grains of RL19 and a 162. It is a good load. I reckon 67 gns of RL22 is about where you want to be. Agree that you should Start at 63-64 grains. Increase in 1 grain increments.
