7PRC reloading
« on: Yesterday at 06:31:28 PM »
Hey all,
My son just bought a Seekins rifle in 7PRC. Does anyone have any good starting points for reloading. Looking at Hornady Eldx or Nosler Accubonds for bullets.

Thanks for any info!

If he reloads, I would look real hard at the hammer hunter monolithic bullets.  I’m pushing the 155 gr Hammer Hunter at 3275 fps and they are very accurate.  My next 7prc will be a seeking and I will likely stick to a 120-130 class hammer hunter and run it fast.  Hammers are great bullets. 

Of the two you mentioned, I would stay with the accubond.   I’m not a fan of the ELD-X bullets.

I run a 169 hammer hunter at 2980 over H1000. It is ridiculously accurate and consistent to 1,000. I have killed several deer with it. Couldn’t be happier.

I have worked up to 71.0g of H1000 with a Barnes 160LRX.  Shooting .282 groups @100 yards.
