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. P

Does not appear on Nosler’s website. P

I’m down to my last 18 pounds. P

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. P

Looking for velocity data, if possible. P

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. P

This bull took a dim view of a single 140 AB from a 7mm-08. P

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...

Nothing you shoot will know the difference between plus or minus 100 fps anyway. P

Why did Nosler drop Hunter powder data for 180 grain bullets? It’s the bee’s knees. P

And I load for the family (four shooters, multiple rifles) so I go through a lot of components. It’s tough sometimes.

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.

Big Game is Varget plus 100 fps.

Why no Big Game? That’s my powder of choice for 120-150 grains. Varget is a close second, no Varget either?

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. P

Convex meniscus. No wonder DrMike gets all the chicks, with all those fancy words. P

Doesn’t bounce off, either.

Nice shooting. I love me some 162 ELDX Plain old stainless T3. Limbsaver pad, otherwise stock. P

I’ve killed two deer over 500 yards with 140 gr Partitions. The Mighty -08 is no joke. P
