N560 might be a little fast burning for the 175 ELDX in the rem mag. I've used AR2213sc and 2217 with the 175 ELDX and got better results velocity wise with the 2217. Both gave good accuracy but...

I agree with you there dannyb not practical at all for a hunting rifle to single feed, sooo I made a little mod to my perfectly good rifle and now I can seat the 175s out to 3.45 and mag feed them....

Or again if you haven't bought the powder yet, you could use boring old 2208. Goes really good in my Tikka t3 7mm08. 40.5 grains pushes162 ELD-M at 2600fps from a 19inch barrel comfortably...

I'm always keen for a bit of experimentation ha ha, I think I'm onto my 8th powder/bullet combo in my rem mag. Variety is the spice of life and if you want another 50fps, then why shouldn't you have...

I went through a similar experience when I started loading that combo in my rem mag, thought I was losing the plot. How do you set up your scales? I have found that my scales can read a little...

Thanks joelhenton the reason I'm interested in your results as I'm using the same bullet in my 19" barrel 7mm08 at 2600fps with 40.5 grains of 2208. That's a warm load in my rifle, 40.8 grains and...
