I just ordered 25 bags of blems from SPS.
The 160 AB at 3k from the 7mm Rem Mag is the best combo possible.
Change my mind.
P No reason tl change your mind. I agree with you. 160 accubonds have been my go to bullet for a long time

Well, since you got 1,250 of them coming, they better work! lol
I’ve got a couple of bags of them gathering dust somewhere. The 150 TTSX has done so well I never bothered, particularly now that powder is now formulated with unobtainium. No flies on the AB.

I use 154 SSTs at 3150 for whitetail and pronghorn. For mule deer and bigger I use 160 ABs at 3050. My 7 shoots both loads under an inch and the recoil is very manageable. I cant think of a better all around package for my usage.

I can attain an over-pressured 7mag/Retumbo load of 3150+, but why would I want to? That's what STW's are for.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

I shot 160 accubonds and H4831 for many years out of a sako 7 Rem mag. I recently built a 7 mag that I was going to shoot 140 bergers in and didn’t have any luck with how they shot. I tried some of my old accu bond reloads for my sako and got 3/4” groups. I never had any complaints with the 160 accubonds. I shot them at about 3025 fps.

There is always one in the bunch but I would pick the same weight Partition. I never shoot past 450 yards anyway. I'm going to be loading 160s in my 7x57. Agree on that pick.

Pharmseller, Not to change the subject too much but being a 7mm-08 guy how fast in a 22” do you think you can sling one out?

I'll raise you one MM + 40 grains at 3000 fps in Rem Mag and call it perfect ! I get what you're saying. It's one heck of a round. But unrelated to what is the ideal bullet in the SEVEN mm Rem Mag. I think the 160 AB is a mighty good one. Ideal? Yeah, maybe so. Plenty of good bullets out there these days. But I loaded up on those 160 AB blems from SPS too. I still think Partitions probably kill a little quicker, but from my limited experience, no flies on the 160 AB. Rex
