Just got my 7mmRM back from my in-laws and wanted to start load development for the fall whitetail season. I don't even have my dies yet but I'm interested in finding out which powders and bullets they like best for accurate shooting at deer.

Any recommendations for bushings on a 7mmRM? I've got all the other components for reloading planned out, but haven't gotten around to the bushings.

The rifle's a stock Rem700 with a 24" barrel. I've seen that most people are using Retumbo or R-17. I'm leaning toward trying the Hornady 162gr SSTs and 175gr Gamekings. Thanks for the help.
