 :chuckle: Thought that might be a bad move right after I posted!!! I should have a disclaimer as not to get anyone's hopes up but I'm not selling any h-1000. Im looking at how I can use it in 3 different rifles and a friend wants some load development for his 7mm so I'm going to need some for him as well.

I did pick up 2lb at a place .
But I'm not at liberty to say where.
But it's pretty rare to say the least.
I've already worked up some other loads with hybrid v100
But I have my old h1000 loads in my data log on my reloading desk.
Will say I wish nosler would quit making 338 bullets and make more common bullets.

How did the v100 work for ya? although I'm into double digits on the H-1000 so it may be awhile before I need to think about

It worked pretty dang good really.
I have no problem hunting with it.
I'm not really a long range hunter anyway.
Groups ,I got it to group just as good.
Just like any other powder, had to get the right bullet and powder charge. Seating depth,to hit the right barrel harmonics .
Basically I believe any powder\ bullet/ combo will work,
But then hitting the speed you want the bullet to go with good groups is the tricky part.

That video was a poor representation of what the actual potentials are either.

You just need to lighten that wsm up M. The 7wsm is everything the 6.8 western wants to be. Definitely one of my favorite .284's! Its a shame the industry never got behind it with factory ammo and quality brass options.

 :tup: I hear ya but I dont want to touch a thing on that 7wsm cause its sooooo acurate. I can loose a pound and a half if I want to loose the bi-pod and strap but I was lucky I had the bi-pod this year. Also lucky for me I have a pile of brass and h-1000 for the wsm.
my main gun is a 28 nosler, but I have a 7wsm for tighter quarter deer hunting.  Love them both, you could say I’m a.284 fan!
