Need 7mm Dakota loads!

[elmer deer]

Hi guys my custom 7mm Dakota is arriving in a week and I need some good loads preferably with heavier bullets 160grs and up? And if you guys have the velocities can please post them.
Thank you

Excellent! I really like the Dakota rifles. The Hornady manual has some data on the 7mm Dakota.I would try Rel22. It has a starting load of 64.3 grains and a max load of 75.8 with the 162 grain bullet.Top velocity of 3200fps.

 

[FOTIS]

Cartridge : 7 mm Dakota
Bullet : .284, 160, Nosler AccuBond 54932
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.330 inch or 84.58 mm
Barrel Length : 26.0 inch or 660.4 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.

Matching Maximum Pressure: 62032 psi, or 427 MPa

or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 110 %

These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
