Default 7 mm wsm

Just purchased a winchester mod 70 in 7mm wsm and was wondering if anybody had some decent hunting loads for me to start at. Thanks

I suggest you buy a reloading manual or visit Accurate Reloading

Visit the Accurate Reloading website and check out Magpro powder. They claim this powder was designed specifically for the WSM cases. You can request a free reloading guide while you are on the website. They list some impressive velocities for the WSM family of cartridges with Magpro.

Also, check out the Winchester website and look at their data using WXR and 760. They designed the cartridges so they should have data that is useful.

The 7MM WSM is a good cartridge and don't worry about the short neck. More ado is made about it than is necessary. The same things can be said for the 300 Win Mag. This makes me wonder why so many 1,000 yard matches and records have been set with the 300.

I guess I should have been more specific. I have been reloading for about 20 years and have numerous reloading manuals. I was just wondering if a fellow reloader owned a 7mm wsm and had worked up a good load that I could try in mine. Thanks for the responses so far though.
