How fast will the 7mm Rem mag go? 

That's a great load. You should be able to match or exceed the 7 PRC, on the rokslide forum they pulled apart a 7 PRC load and figured it looked like RL 26. They loaded up the exact same charge of RL26 as the factory round and it was identical in speed. RL 26 is fast but has a reputation for being volatile. A 1 in 8 twist 7mm RM is at least as good or better than the Hornady round. The new Remington's are also going with a 1 in 8 twist for the 7mm RM.

I have been reloading the 7 mm REM Mag since 1975. High velocity with 175 grain bullets is done with Retumbo, VV-570 and RL-33 !!!

Great video! Prove him wrong there buddy!

Wow that is some impressive loading and shooting. Keep it up. Try the Nosler 140 gr ballistic tips in your 270. Thanks for sharing.

That is a very impressive group shot! I thought I knew a guy that ran a compressed ram shot Magnum powder that hit 3000 FPS. If you have some of that... Do what you feel comfortable with doing. As always, safety first. Youll get that speed and really good video man! Also, he may have some better luck adding a little bit of jump.

That last group was really impressed

Looks like a fun day!

The big different in accuracy in 7mm was changing from bipod to the bag,bipod with hard rubber feet on a crapy uneven bench will make the gun bunch all over the place in the recoil..good recoil management is the key to success (accuracy)

My 270 loves reloder 22. I usually load around 59-60 grains depending on bullets and have had excellent accuracy with it. I know everyone’s results vary but just wanted to mention it in case you haven’t tried it yet.

I have a 7rm and am shooting 180 eldm at just under 3000fps. Retumbo, rl26, and n565 are my choices for the 180s. Extremely accurate and devastating on whitetails. As long as you have a fast twist barrel you will have no issues pushing them over 2950

Not all guns are equal. I have had three 7mags. First I didnt own a chrony but second was a Interterms fancy rifle it had longer then a 24" bbl and shot pretty well. Reliable to 1" with most loads and broke 3k with my 160's. (My preferred) That rifle was gifted to a very good friend as he lusted over its figured stock and nice bluing. I hunted for three or four years until I found another. Same rifle but plain walnut without grip cap or forend tips of first. Anyhow I had to really push to vet solid into 29's. Just past 2950 and thats all I can get with any powder I have tried. This is something I have seen before. Bottom line is that Some barrels simply are "faster" then others.

Would love to see a 280 24 inch barrel 140 SBT with 56gr IMR 4831 ✈️

My rifle shoots a charge of RL 25 & 175 eld-x in a nice accuracy node @ 3050 fps (roughly, there is a decent temperature variance w/ rl-25 in my experience), over a magneto speed, out of a 24 bbl. My buddy just found some 175 eld-x for me, but RL-25 doesn't seem to exist anymore.

A custom gun builder told me to press down on the top of the scope when shooting groups. It really helps control that muzzle jump and improves accuracy allot.

One of my 7mm Rem Mag with 1-9T 26” tube pushes the 175 grain NP which has a very long bearing surface @ 3060 fps with no pressure signs. IMR- 7828, H-1000 pushers the 180 grain Hybrid @ 3000 fps easily and SD and ES both single digits. RL-26 or Retumbo will provide higher velocities.

Nice! I've got a Remington 700 in 7mm rem mag!

H4831/sc is my favorite powder for 7mm mag. Your accurate load is very close to my accurate load with 162g ELD-X.

I like that rifle. The browning

Despite the velocity accuracy wise adi here in Australia recommends 2217 which is your h1000 equivalent not the slowest not the fastest but most accurate but if you could get 3000fps which is possible with 175 grain would it still group nice is the question . It seems 160 grain is the sweet weight for this calibre

You know. I always see guys use their calipers to measure groups because they're "more accurate" and then they don't even measure them accurately. Instead of guessing where center to center is measure from edge of the group to the further edge and then subtract .284 for 7mm. That's how you get a truly accurate measurement.

Retumbo works great for 180s

I use fed 215 m primers, 61.5 grs. IMR 4831 and hornady brass and get .3 groups all day long with nosler accubonds and sirra game kings and federal fusions and berger bullets

7 Rem mag holds 4.5g more powder than the 7 PRC. 28" 7 Rem mag shoots the 160-162g at 3200 fps with Retumbo and Fed 215's.

Ole trusty 7 rem mag gonna make those prc cry 😂 and what else is funny the 300 win will basically do the same to 300 prc

Ever use absolute hammer bullets? Thinking of a load for 30-06 but absolute hammer need to be reload little different

I didn’t realize 7mm rem mag was that fast. I was debating between rem mag and prc down the road. I don’t think I need the prc after seeing this.

About 110 km/ hrs in my truck

What in the world is that scope so high for

H1000 😊

Use some 140 grain bullets next, just a couple to see please.

Any pressure signs?

IMR 7828

Q: How fast will the 7mm Rem mag go? A: Not as fast as a 7mm Weatherby!!! 😅

Back 10-15 thousandths off of the lands, and use either Retumbo or R-26. You’ll achieve 2,970 with 180s.

3075

I run compressed load imr 7828 + 175 gr, 3000 fps says my chrony (24" barrel)

Rl33 powder
