I have a Browning A-bolt 7mm. I am heading to Wy on a high mountain late season muley hunt. What load would you veterans recommend?

What cartridge is your rifle chambered for? 7mm Mauser, 7mm Remington Magnum, 7mm Express/280 Remington?

If a Rem mag then a 140 Nosler Ballistic Tip with H4831 should work.

Barnes LRX 145 and RL-22 worked great for me, RLs do have some temperature deterioration though. 7828ssc is another good choice in addition to the H4831 mentioned.

In short, there are many great loads out there.

I'd say 150 Ballistic Tip, 154 Hornady, 145 Speer or 160 Sierra HPBT Game King. If you prefer a spendier bullet/"premium" bullet go with a 140-160 Partition or Accubond.
I'm liking H1000 with my 150 Ballistic Tips right now

140NPTs, 140NABs, or 150NBTs will all work quite well.

Light some IMR4350, H4831, R22, or 7828 with 215s.

My first grab would be 140NABs ahead of H4831.
