    Blaser 7mmRM 162gn Amax Load....anyone?

    Hi - my 2 past 7mmRMs have shot sub-half inch with 2217 and Amaxs. Will be my starting point but has anyone got a load they have found works well for them (I would work up to it if possible of course).

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Yup, factory blaser barrels like a lot of jump. Even my original .223 barrel needed 20thou from memory.
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    Brilliant...same load as my HS which also liked a good jump...benefit of jump was reduced pressure but 3150fps with 162s.
