Advise for loading 7mm Rem Mag

My Rem 700 7mag shoots h4831 extremely well. Does good with IMR but prefers H powder. You should be able to find a sweet spot with velocity you are trying to obtain.
 
@Nevada Mike reading your OP, I assume you meant to say the 175 gr Core Lokt bullets are wildly accurate, not inaccurate.

I too stumbled upon a similar finding. I bought a box of Federal Premium Trophy Bonded Bear Claw in 175 grain and they are extremely accurate in my rifle (Ruger M77 Mk1). I then bought a case of the same ammo off of GB and have no intentions of reloading for my Ruger 7mm mag.
Nope. I haven't found any 175s that shoot well in my rifle. With 160 0r 140 grain bullets it is an MOA rifle.

I'll try MRP and H4831 and see what I can get. I also have Speer Hot COr Mag Tips and Nosler PT in 160, but I think the Swifts might be better on larger African game, tho' I have used Noslers in this rifle to kill a number of elk.
