Hi guys,
New to this forum but not new to shooting.
I'm getting ready to work up a load for a 7mm Weatherby that will be used for an elk hunt this fall. The plan is to use 160 grain Accubonds to give us good longer range performance, and I am using brass that is once-fired and has been shot in this same rifle. The rifle is a stainless Weatherby Mark V with a 26 inch barrel.
The 160 grain appears to be the point at which I could use either the H-4831SC or the H-1000 that I currently have on hand. Both appear to be good for this caliber and I don't see a clear reason to choose either one. I am currently leaning toward the H-1000 but that may change by tomorrow. :grin:
Any thoughts or recommendations before I get started?
Patrick
