I use it in my Nesika 7mm wsm 154gr Interbond with 60.5 gr of RL17 at just shy of 3000 FPS not the fastest load but hold .5 MOA out to 600 yards I use a Fed 210 match primer as i found magnum primers threw fliers

I tried it one time with 120 grain Nosler B/T's and got better velocity with Reloader 19 and less bolt resistance. I never could get overpressure signs with any powder I tried except for the increased resistance of the bolt, sold the rifle and swore off WSM cartridges and now live happily with 06 based cartridges.
