Hi folks. Can someone with Hornady’s 4th edition tell me what powders they list for 7mm IHMSA? I’ve been collecting data here and there, but info is very limited. I’d like to know If its worth it for me to purchase this manual used. With powders in short supply, the more options I have, the better.

Cheers
 
It's in my 7th edition. I have lots of articles, including the IHMSA books. What bullet weight you using for a starter. Also, what powder do you have? PM me your email and I can do a bit of digging, ...... was shooting IHMSA long before the cartridge, but still have two of them.
 
Thanks Arctic! I’m shooting 130’s at present, but plan on trying some heavier bullets. Sending PM with my email address. I’ve been finding the most luck with H414 and H4198.

I know it's not the Hornady. But the old Speer book has it.
It's also available in the newest Hornady online edition. The app.
