Thread: 7mm rem mag loads

I have done load dev for 162gr SST with 2213sc and 162gr ELD-X with 2217. I found that I could get excellent accuracy with both, however the 70.5gr 2217 and ELD-x combo flew far faster, pushing 2910 feet per second consistently. The 2213sc was slower by a couple hundred fps which was to be expected. Case fill was a bit of a concern with 2213sc for me, there was a lot of left over room in the case. Recoil is also a factor worth considering. I get a sharp boot with the 2217 load.
