My 7x57 has a long throat and the only lighter bullet it will shoot into an 1 1/2" is the 145gr GS with enough 4350 to get 2,750fps.
The load I've worked up in the past month is the 160 Speer Hot-Cor on top of Hunter for just under 2700fps. It's putting three under an inch regularly and I'm quite pleased.
Mule Deer has a hell of a lot more credibility than I of course. Just thought I'd throw it out there.
