    7mm Rem Mag loads?

    Developing a 7mm Rem Mag load using AR2213sc and 150gn pills
    Anyone else using this combo?
    I am interested because I have read that 70gns is the go to load accuracy wise but this is well over book max. Any personal experience would be appreciated.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    The Ruger i had liked 71gn 2213 and 150gn Nosler B/Ts. That was doing 3250fps. Found the B/Ts worked really well on game.

    Thanks @Shootm. It is 150gn BTs I have so I imagine a start load of around 68gns should be safe (about book max).

    I use 65grs AR 2213SC and the 162gr A-Max for 2955 fps , 70 plus grains sounds pretty hot as mine are over the book Max.. Work your way up to that load if you go that far.

    I'd probably start with a faster powder. I was using 2217 for 154gr with no real success then changed to 162 amax and they shot well.
    (I'm going from memory that 2213sc is slower than 2217)
