My brother's stainless T3 7 Rem Mag shoots the 180 grain HSM factory Berger load extremely well. No idea what their recipe is but it only clocks 2750 MV.

Obey lawful commands. Video interactions. Hold bad cops accountable. Problem solved.

One caution. My 6.5x55 has a tapered throat. When I tried to seat bullets close to the rifing, even starting loads flattened primers. If you use one of those oal measurment tools, measure from the first resistance you feel.
