Not much experience with any other powders, but RL22 in 160 partitions and Sierra Game Kings have been stelar for me. My 63gr RL22, Rem 9 1/2 Magnum, FC or WW brass with 160NPT flies at ~2900fps. I have not chronoed again, but 64 of RL22 was even more accurate and so was 64.5, I assume those would be in the 3000+ range. No pressure signs at all, so I could push it even more, but fast enough of hunting.

H1000 and Ramshot Magnum near book max. with 160 partitions. Have used Ramshot Hunter also with 160 AB and it is very consistent and accurate.

I used to use 7828 in my 7mm's, but now I use Ramshot Magnum more than anything.

I have been using 64 grains of IMR 4350 for over 30 years in at least a dozen 7mags. Very accurate. 140 partition kills DRT.

I prefer Re 22 with 140's.. Re 25 with 168's.. Two of my pals use I4350.. They are the most serious 7 mag. shooters I know..

My Ruger loves 66.0 grains of RL-22 and 140 grain Barnes TSX or 140 Nosler Accubonds.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Give the new IMR 7977 a try. This new Enduron powder is very temp stable and adds some velocity over 4350 and 7828. I have not shot it in a hunting rifle yet but my factory 40X 7RM shows great potential with this powder.
