I have 150 and 175 ABLRs for my 7RM and am interested in best loads.
Anyone working with those?

I've got some 150's in a 280AI load from Nosler. But alas, I have no rifle to shoot them in...

Give EH some time. He may break down and find himself a nice .280AI rifle...

I worked up to 71grs of H1000 under a 150gr LRAB for a hair under 3200fps and just under MOA. Stuck with VLDs on account I have 1k on the shelf.

I found 150 and 175 ABLR blems on the Nosler SPS site. My Brux/MkV 7RM just loves 168 VLD's with RL-25, like sub half inch or so. There's no reason not to go with those as you're doing, but a Loony just can't leave well enough alone... I'm sure you understand those symptoms...  DF

DF Well, I've got an older 700 25-06 and a Brux #3 7mm 9 twist. Long rifles might just get another package from me. 257heaven had them build a nice 280AI for him, I might dupe that build!

DF, I have a 175 LRAB load that I use in a long throat 7RM. i don't think it'd work well in a standard throat, but I use H1000 with great results

Thanks, guys.
I'm loading up some test rounds to see what they'll do at the target and across the chrono.
Will report, but it's gotta quit raining before I can shoot. May need to start building an Ark.

I had excellent results with 75 grains of Re 33 under a 175 Partition. AB should be the same. 1/2-inch groups at 3028 fps from my 26-inch barrel.
You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.
