a crony certainly sorts out the hype.love the 7mm rm.sure you can get some good speed but MOSTLY,accuracy goes out the door. drop around 150fps off full throttle,and they mostly,but not allways shoot tight as at long range.you got to hit them first.used to shoot 160 grainers in my first barrel@around 3100fps.shot good but the barrel went quick.load to 2950 approx,-magic load.the new wonder mags(WSM) cant be given away in oz.we use adi powders which hogdon import to america-single base-n/c,that burns around 300degrees cooler at the throat than double base powders@around 2900degrees.in a 26" barrel.work up to 3100fps using a 175 grainer using ar2225(retumbo).is hot but gives good accuracy in my gun and will definitely give you what you want.factory loads that hammer-no way-every body sues nowadays,and is the only explanation i can think of.
