I just bought a factory Remington 700 Sendero in 7mmSTW. I've pretty much decided to go with 160 Accubonds for hunting. Anyone got any loads they like with this bullet?
 
Re: 7 STW loads

I was using the 140 nosler ballistic silvertip with 84 gr of H1000, getting 3600 FPS out of a 28inch krieger barrel and it was shooting in the 0.3" at 100 yds. Burned the barrel in less than 800 rds though.
good luck.

Burned in less than 800 rounds?Did you get it hot? I don't even shoot mine if it's over 70 degree's.I shot 4 round when it was in the mid 80's and the barrel was hot for an hour or better.
