I've recently bought a 7mm SAUM. It came with some factory Remington Premier ammo loaded with 160 grain Partitions. This rifle loves that ammo. Which leads to my question.
How do I go about replicating this ammo? Will Remington give me the specs on this ammo, since it's no longer in production?
I've never reloaded, but about to start.
Thanks.
My buddy asks/thinks the same thing. For starters:
1. They aren't going to give you the recipe.
2. Work up your own load. If you do this, you'll do better than factory because it will be tailor made to your rifle.
3. Like others have said, don't skimp on proper reloading practices: Uniformity, concentricity, charge wt, oal, trim length, neck chamfering (inside and out), flash holes, and even properly cleaning your brass is all important for consistency and accuracy.
4. If your rifle "loves" that ammo, don't be afraid to work something up that bests it. It can and does happen..
