  What bullet are you loading? I have several manuals and would be glad to scan the information for the 7mm Rum and email it to you if you send me your email.

  I just posted a topic looking for info. on the 7mm RUM. I have been researching this some and I can't seem to get a 150gr 7mm bullet up to that. I think he is full of crap.
  
  www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productNumber=892639
  
  
  Here is a link for factory ammo that claims 3325 fps with 150 sciroccos. Buy some factory loads and see how the shoot.
  
  The factory 180's shot 1 moa out of my 300 at 100 yards before I bedded and had the trigger done.

  Thanks Redneck,
  Thats what we've been shooting (Remington Premier) 150 Sciroccos.
  But at $60 a box, I can load them for 1/2 that. Will probably shoot 168gr. Sierra matchking and 139gr. Hornady's and keep the sciroccos for hunting.

  Ash,
  
  Depending on the powder you plan to use, you could start here.

  All the 150 gr loads use a Scirocco!
  
  Good Luck.

  WARNING! Pages 108 and 109 in the Hodgdon 2010 Annual Manual (which includes 7 RUM data) are incorrect! The pages are misprinted. Do NOT use this data.
  
  You can request a properly printed pair of those pages at no charge from Hodgdon.

  Thanks Laylandad,
  That was about the only info. I had till this forum.
  I wonder if the stuff on the Hodgdon site is correct,after reading Rocky's addition about their manual being misprinted kinda scares me.
  I always start low and work up but these are huge loads with massive pressures.

  ashjam,
  
  Sierra doesn't list anything for the 7mm Rum as far as load data.
  
  Hornady lists: 139gr Bullet
  
  AA3100 starting at 77.6 3000fps max84.4 3300fps
  
  H 4831 Start 78.3 3000fps Max86.1 3300fps
  
  Rl 22 Start 74.2 3000fps max 90.4 3400fps
  
  Imr7828 start 78.7 3000fps Max 89.1 3400fps
  
  viht N-165 start 78.5 3000fps max 86.8 3300fps
  
  H1000 start 88.1 3100fps max 96.4 3500fps
  
  Sorry I took so long to get this info for you. This is all of the load data that is listed for the Hornady 139gr bullet.
