DIY Mule Deer
Hey guys. I’m thinking of heading west for the first time in 23, and interested in Colorado for Mule Deer. Any of you have shareable info on public access? Not out for a monster, would just like a decent buck before I’m too old and slow to take on the terrain. -

Best Powder Measure
What are some recommendations for a good, solid measure? I have a Hornady lock n load now, but it’s not super consistent..... -

7 Rem Mag - RL22 Update
I have also been closely checking primers for doming etc. Bolt opens super easy after the shot too, crossing my fingers this is a good stable load I can reproduce! -

Absolutely! I watched for case expansion after every round. I hope I didn’t violate any rules posting that load since it’s over Max -

7 Rem Mag - RL22 Update
Loaded 3 more of the 66.4 grain loads under the 162 Grain ELDX and shot one group, no chrono since it’s sketchy. Just accuracy. Cold Barrel 3 shot group was .530 at 100. I still plan to tinker a bit more, but this ain’t bad! Thanks again for all the Sage advice!!!! -

RL-22 Range Time
Thank you all for the feedback! I really enjoy the info on this forum, and you are all super helpful! Not this way on the others for sure! -

RL-22 Range Time
It’s a stock browning xbolt. So far zero pressure signs. Recoil was actually rather mild, which leads me to believe the velocities are for sure lower. I’d think a 162 moving at 3200 would protest a tad hahaha -

RL-22 Range Time
I can’t believe I didn’t list that. Yes. 7 mm Rem Mag. What are your thoughts on the MagnetoSpeed? They have one for like $199.00, and I may have a birthday coming up! -

RL-22 Range Time
Got to fling a few rounds this am. Using a cheapie Caldwell chrono, and apparently it was way way off, but posting anyway. All loads with Hornady brass, CCI LMRP primers, and 162 gr Hornady ELDX. 66.0 gr - average 3199, ES 4 1.10” group at 100 66.2 gr - average 3186, ES 24 1.32” group at 100... -

On this same note.... that’s pretty hot. Completely ok not getting to the top end of this!!! -

7 mm Rem Mag - RL22
I’m going through all my brass and picking out just Hornady for this experiment. I have several Winchester and a few Remington. I found my notes from last year.... I tried 65.5 gr (hot) and it shot like crap. Zero pressure signs. I loaded 3 at 65.8, 3 at 66, 3 at 66.2, 3 at 66.3 and 3 at 66.4... -

Y’all don’t laugh at me... a node is identified when say, 62.5, 62.6, 62.7 all are super close in velocity? I’m just a red neck farmer from Arkansas hahahaha -

7 mm Rem Mag - RL22
This is so exciting!!! I’ve loaded a lot over the years, but never really tweaked around and got it like I want. I shoot a custom smokeless .45 muzzleloader that I’ve delved into Satterlee etc with and it is insanely accurate. Now to focus on the center fire. I appreciate you all for the help!!!!
