Hey Guys,
I looking for a good starting load for my Winchester M70 Coyote in 7mm WSM with the components listed and GMM 215 primmers. I am using bergers recomendation with the seating depth, I am starting with .010 off the lands and ending at .130 off the lands. Also is H1000 a good choice for this load as far as consistency with temp change and so forth. I live at about 3000 feet with summer temps at 100+ and want to use the sme load at 9000+ feet to hunt elk with temps to 30 +/-

Thanks for your help

H-1000 is a great place to start. I didn't need to look any further.

My load and it's pretty mild, but be cautious:
67.5 grains of H-1000
168 Berger seated based on comparator... .10 jammed
210M Fed Primers

Also this load which shoots exactly the same as above:
68 grains of H-1000
162 Amax
210 Fed Primers
