Yea but what about the RL 22? I know this doesnt sound reasonable,if i read this that someone wrote I would be thinking they were doing something wrong. Honestly I have triple checked everthing and have loaded these twice with the same results. My 7mag is one of the first calibers that I started loading for over 20 years ago, so I have the experience with this caliber and have never run into anything like this before. I normally hunt with 150gr nosler bt or 140gr accubonds. I dont have to have the grand slams, its just this really bugs me and I cant explain it. I have been wanting a chronograph this might just give me the reason to buy one.
