I do reload for the 270 wsm. I narrowed it down to 59.5 grs. of IMR 4350 with a 140 gr accubond.Seems to group pretty good. I'm not the greatest bench shooter but out of 5 different test loads it was the best.

Hey dflower i have a Tikka 270 wsm and reload Imr 7828ssc @64grns with WLRM primers. I use 140 grn Accubonds and seat the bullet just long enough to cycle with out any problems. They due very well even at long range for me. Took a nice muley at 620 yrds ! and one bullet did the job. Good luck with your loads and what do you use for your 7mm?
