Does anyone have data for this bullet? All of my manuals stop at 175gr or jump from 175 to 195. I need to run the heavier bullets as I am going to be taking some hogs at longer distances here soon.

The caliber that I need the info for is the 7mm Rem Mag.

I am going to call Berger and see what they can send me also.

Thanks for the load.

+1. Give them a ring, and they will email you some good data.
