7 WSM with the Berger 150gr Classic Hunter

[effendude]

I've volunteered to load some ammo for a relative who has a 7WSM using the 150gr. Berger Classic Hunter bullet.
Berger doesn't list this bullet in their manual. Anyone have a real world experience with this combo?

If I remember correctly, the Classic Hunter is a hybrid ogive shape.
Making it fairly tolerant of jump.
So loading to SAAMI length (taking magazine length into consideration), you should be ok.

I might look at the loads for the 150gr Sierra Tipped GameKing, and the 150gr ELDX as aside from the tip, the bullet construction is similar.

Call Berger and they will help you out with loads for that bullet

My 7wsm LOVES Reloder 23 with 150gr Classic hunter .015" off the lands. Start at 64gr and work up.
