Picked up a M7 in .243 the other day on trade. Any load suggestions for this 20" rig? It'll be primarily a truck/coyote rifle, so I'm looking for 65-80grain loads.

Thanks,

Dbl-bbl: I use 45.5 grs H414 with a 70 grain Nosler BT, and I like it's accuracy and it's hard on groundhogs. The H414 meters well also.

Try the Sierra 70gr BlitzKing with 40 to 41 grains of Varget.

243 loads

My favorite 243 loads are: 1) 48 grains of RL 22 and the 85 grain Sierra HPBT and 2) 40 grains of Varget and a 70 grain bullet, or 39 grains of Varget with the 75 grain VMAX. I have two Model 7s, and both give good accuracy. Good luck.

I've had good results from 55 gr Sierra Blitzkings 42.3 gr of Varget.
Happy reloading.

Thanks for the replies. I have 414 and Varget in the shop, this will give me somewhere to start.


Thanks again,
