Here are some of the loads Berger sent me for the 7 RM.
62 gr. IMR 7828 SSC (2855 fps) as start....65.3 as maximum (3002)
62 gr. RE-22 (2832 fps) as start.......65.0 as maximum (2984)
66 gr. RETUMBO (2839 fps) as start.....70.4 as maximim (3022)
64.5 gr. RE-25 (2875 fps) as start.......67.8 as maximum (3012)

A 168 VLD at 2950-3000 fps retains over 2000 ft lbs at 450 yds!!! Incredible. Should prove to be highly effective on game.

Were your bullets part of Corlanes shipment? I'm expecting mine anyday. My new 7 RM will ship to Montana next week. Can't wait.
