I did a poor man measurement by seating a bullet long in a slightly over sized bullet, then slowly chambering the round (with out a primer) in the rifle.
It measured 3.355" and I have set my COAL at 3.260" for the first round of testing. When I find the best charge at 3.260" I will then play...
Well with starting a new job it has taken me a bit. However I got my test/work up loads loaded. Hoping to get out to see what they do this weekend.

Thanks for finding those spelling errors. Am going to get those changed. Also going to change from "weapon" to firearm information.
I have these saved in excel and just print the sheets I need on 5X8 card stock and hole punch.

Been bored this week due to a down turn in the economy. Lol
Any way I have been looking for a log book but have never found one I truly like. So I took bits and pieces from the web and sat down on excel and made a full log book. It has every thing from firearm details, maintenance, round count...
Quick question Drmike. I see in your QL data you used a 24" barrel, my rem 700sps dm is a 26" barrel. How much of a difference will that make on the pressures?

Thanks for all the info. I have read a lot on the 7mm and just wanted verification that I was on the right track. I will be sure to report back, it won't be for a bit but I will do

I am going to be reloading for this hunting season coming up, and settled on the nosler 150gr e-tip. I am using Winchester magnum primers and hodgens H4350 powder.
My question is, I was going to start with a charge of 58gr and work up. What do you think, safe starting point?
