Thanks, but I switched to the 162 ELDX in my 7mm Rem Mag, Nosler priced me out.
A guy on another forum made the claim so I posted the question here when Nosler didn’t answer the phone.

I have a lot more Hunter than BG, I’ll give it a go.
I get 2780 with 150 ELDX and superb accuracy, BG powder.
Interesting that Nosler’s max is of Hunter is 49.5, which indicates a dangerous load.
Thanks SJB.

I finally found some 150 gr AccuBonds, now I need some load data. Nosler doesn’t list Big Game in their data, and that’s my fav, so I’m hoping someone has some data. I have plenty of Hunter, too, which delivers the highest velocity of the powders listed by Nosler.

Tikka Varmint in .223 Rem, 75 gr ELD-M over Benchmark, 2900 fps MV, Mulie buck kilt at 475 yards.
Hit a tad high on the left side, broadside
Wrecked a vertebrae going in, big hole on the way out
Exit just behind the shoulder blade cartilage. Surprisingly little bloodshot.
Lungs a bit...
My loads, for each bullet weight listed, based on Nosler’s book max, are all !DANGEROUS LOAD - DO NOT USE!
R-P brass, WLRM primer, if it makes any difference.
That’s funny.
Hornady
Available and affordable.
Heck, I drive by the factory every other week. Nosler bullets were all I shot for years.
Can’t load ‘em if you can’t find ‘em.
