load data berger 180's rl 26 7mm rem mag assist

having trouble finding load data on alliant site. stops at 160 gr bullets, none of them bergers. never used quickloads but would it work for this?

i did find a starting recipe for h1000 from hodgens site

found one thread on longrange hunting. was looking for more info. thanks
 
no,,, with h1000 much higher... starting 63.2 up to 69.5 per hodgdon but that is with a winchester case and i am using nosler. hmmm

and one thread was talking about the same with rl26

rl26 is the one i can't find much info on.

Reloder 26 is a screamer, with the low pressure benefit. I'd sacrifice* a case (or two) and work up in .5 grain increments from a REALLY safe load. I'd even send you some sacrificial Win cases if you'd like. ;)

*when you get to a pressure load that might loosen a primer pocket
 
Don't know if it helps but in my 06' with 180 class bullets I can go up to 63.8
I'm playing with it around 62.
Should be a good starting point for ya.
I agree with#40 fan .3 increments until pressure raises its head
 
I use the 180gr Berger HVLD with H1000 with very good results. 67.5gr in brand new Nosler brass that I ran through a 300 WM die and resize with my 7mm die. Fed 215s. I get 2920 with an SD of 7.2, 0.010 from the lands.

One hole accuracy in a 26" Remage CBI barrel. Holds true to 450 yards ,haven't got to shoot it further than that yet.
