    Reloader 22

    Would Reloader 22, be the best powder for my 7mm Rem mag? Successful loads? Other powders that you think would be a better option?
    Thanks In advance (hopfully) Sam

    RL22 will work in 7RM, similar burn rate to ADI 2217. The ADI powders 2217 & 2225 are the go to powders for 7RM

    Adi powder are also quite a bit cheaper and are likely to remain more available than Alliant. Might be better in the longer term.

    quicker than adi2217. Great powder for a 7RM. From memory 64-67 gns behind a 170/162 gn pill. Pricey now it is.

    Looking at my notes i developed loads between 66 to 69 grains of rl22 and 162eldm.
    Start lower with the 162eldx as it develops preasure early
