284/140 ACCUBOND 7 Mag loads

[WHELENATOR]

Has anyone tried the 140 AB's in the 7 Rem Mag yet? Any data?
Nosler, can these be loaded using the same data as a 140 BT?

I am loading 140 grain Accubonds in my 7mm Rem Mag, Model 700. I use Federal 215 Match, magnum primers, and RL-22 at 67 grains charge. It is a very flat shooting setup.

The only game I have taken with it was a close shot on a forked Horn Blacktail, boilerroom shot. The exit hole was about 2 1/2 inches across. Needless to say, the buck, never took a step, just folded over.

Well, that sounds just about right for the fast magnums...deer just buckle right up. I ran the load with 68 Grs yesterday and it did really well, even considering my barrel was fouling the groups looser and looser..how fast is that 67 GR's load you have?? Are you running a 24 inch barrel? That's what I have.

All data for BT's and PT's can be used for the AccuBond.

To be a safe reloader, I must suggest you drop a grain or 2 and work back up. Your point of impact may change a bit, due to a longer bullet.
