Just finishing up a build in 7mm RUM on a Sako action with a Gaillard 1 in 9 twist SS 26" barrel and Vais muzzle brake installed. The package is nestled nicely into a Robertson Composite long range hunter stock.

Now the fun part, i have a box of factory ammo, a set of dies and 50 new brass. load data is not overly available, or at least not that i have found.

i like using Ramshot powders so am hoping to find if anyone has done some loading for the beast in this calibre, and specifically with any Ramshot powders. looking to shoot Berger VLDs

thanks
 
That sounds like a gorgeous gun.:)

Not Ramshot, but I have found great success with the heavier bullets in the 300 RUM and a 6.5mm-300 Win Mag with Hodgdon US869. I would try it with the 140's and heavier in the 7mm RUM.
 
i posted a pic of the rifle in the photo gallery section. maybe should have put it in precision rifles the way she shoots and handles. With factory ammo and the brake, could have easily handled the whole box.

I have handloaded this round still looking for the right load but do have a little reloading data I have been using retumbo powder up to 99grains with a 130gr bullet,. Your ultra mag looks pretty nice.
