So with talking with one of my wife's friends, turns out her father has a bunch of reloading stuff he doesn't use any more.....so after a 20 min drive and a few minutes talking , I left his house with a keg ( 8lbs ) of 4831, 200pcs 139gn Nosler bullets, 200pcs of 150gn Hornady bullets and a close to 400 empty brass cases of mixed calibers for a whopping.......$ nothing, nadda, free ! tried 3 times to offer him cash but he refused. So back to point, what loads are u guys finding accurate using IMR 4831 ??
 
I cannot speak for the 139/140 grain bullets in the 7mm Rem Mag, but the 150's and IMR 4831 are a match made in heaven.
Try starting at about 62 grains, and work up carefully.
Somewhere around 65/66 grains should get you a sweet spot.
I shot an 8" group at 1000 yards with the 7mm Mag using that formula and 150 grain Ballistic Tips.
