I have recently purchased a 7rum sendero and have had alot of trouble finding loads for it due to none of the manuals having this caliber in them. I was hoping someone had some experience with this caliber. I was also wondering if I could use the 300rum data as a reference due to the cases being the same size and capacity??
 
140 accubonds
87 gr of H4831
Fed 215 primer
Rem brass

That's the only load I have at the moment.
I e-mailed barnes, hodgson and hornady and they sent me some loads-I don't have them handy but if you want them let me know.
 
Yea I would like those loads when you get a chance. I have worked with the accubonds with several different powders including the one you mentioned but was not completely satisfied with the acuracy ( most were around 1/2 inch but I am used to better than that with my other guns ). I am very interested in the triple shock X bullets in 140 grain and the 150 grain scirocco but cant find any info and at the rate I been putting bullets down my barrel ( over 120 rounds so far ) it will be shot out before I find a couple of good loads to take care of the different animals I hunt. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

160XBT-same as above but 1 grain lower on all figures.

The barnes figures are right from Barnes bullets.

The others are from Alliant powder as you can probably tell.
Hope this helps
 
Hi there,

The new Nosler & Hornady manuals have them in but are a bit on the lite side, I also have a Sendero and am finding ADI 2225 (Ratumbo) to be showing promising signs, 94 grn so far with no excessive pressure signs.
Hope this is of some help.
 
xmark,
Did you look at the date of those post?...Not sure how you came upon this thread. I know 7Rumloader, he used to do alot of his shooting at my house/range when I lived in N.C...seems like a lifetime ago....he and I were burning some powder back then....JohnnyK.
