162 ELD-X and MagPro in a 7mm Rem Mag

Anyone using this combo? Ramshot lists 71.5 gr as max for the 162 A-Max, Hornady lists 69.3 gr as max for the ELD-X.

Shooting a T3 with WLRM, Rem brass.

I hit the range today to try out some loads. Very interesting.

First up was the 160 Partition at 3065 fps. Pretty good accuracy, surprisingly mild recoil




As usual, the first two were closest and the dang third shot was out.


Next up was the 162 ELD-X at 2962. Slightly better.





I took a .223 with me and shot that while the barrel cooled. It was 45 degrees and a bit windy so heat wasn't an issue.


Next up was 160 NAB at 3045. It's the three shots circled. I shot three more while the barrel was hot and started spraying. So don't shoot 6 rounds quickly.





During a cease fire I recovered the Partition and ELD-X targets. Interesting, the bullets shot to very similar POA. For fun I posted one more target and shot both bullets at it. Three Partitions, wait, four ELD-X, wait, three more Partitions. If it weren't for the first ELD-X to the right, it wouldn't be a bad group.





The first two shots are the two to the left of the bull. I hate the third shot!
