7 Saum 180 grain Bergers and RL26 recipes

[montanablackdog]

Just built a new 7 Saum. 22" Bartlein carbon barrel. Plan on shooting 180 grain bergers. Anybody have a recipe or good starting point with Reloader 26. I have also got 4831SC, H1000, N560, and Retumbo.

I got this from Berger the other day.
It's for the 175 elite hunter but should work for you.
Or wait till Monday and call them and get 180 data.

Yeah thats what I was hoping for. And looks like what I thought about RL26. Good numbers

yeah RL 26 is awesome in the 7 saum.
I have a 7 saum coming soon. It shoots unreal with Gunwerks ammo with 168 vld in a 20" @2905 fps.
I got the load data from gunwerks so I can duplicate it and they used h1000
Keep us posted on your success.

I'm running 62 grains of RL 26 with the 180 gr HVLD and getting right about 2900 fps. Killed a bunch of animals with that load. Work up to that load of course.

62 ish gr of RL 26 must be the sweet spot in the 7 saum .
This screen shot was shared with me from the guy I'm getting the rifle from that sold his customer a different fierce and this guy sent him this text. One hole group.
I'm pumped for mine!!

7 saum, 180 hybrids, 60.0 grains RL26, 24" proof barrel at an average of 2920. You'll probably be around 60 grains plus or minus a couple grains.
