I use Retumbo in my 28 Nosler with the 180 ELD-M.   It’s a laser beam. 


I am shooting factory federal 175 ELD-M in my 7 PRC and getting .5 MOA accuracy and 3010 fps.  Kinda hard for me to justify reloading for it.  Feels like half the recoil of my 28 Nosler.

Anyone catch of whiff of the new Lapua 7prc brass?  Was supposed to release already.  I need to purchase more brass and was going to give it a shot.

Peterson also makes 7 prc brass that has been excellent brass.  Curious what the lapua brass is going to cost in comparison.

I'm in the same boat with mine shooting the factory Hornady Precision 175gr eld-x.  Just under .5MOA I can't justify my time reloading to try to get them a few cents cheaper.

Currently shooting Peterson brass.  I was just going to try some Lapua if they came out with it before I purchased more Peterson.
