I used to run 72.2 with the hornaday 162 sst. I have now switched barrels and twist rate and went to a 175 gn sierra, so trying my own out now. I would start in the middle around 65. Because the high is 71 and low is 61 or 62.

i don't have a 7mm mag, is a 7mm mag that you are asking about?

but i have the berger manual and this is the data:

start load= 62.5/ 2668 ft per second.

max load= 69.5/ 2987 ft per second.

approx fill ratio 100%.

this is for h1000 powder.

hope this helps.
