Also try 19-20 grains IMR SR4759 with any 140-154 grain bullet. I use Federal 205M primers. I'm sure any benchrest primer would work. Your COAL will depend on how your chamber was cut.

I haven't shot a 7BR too much but AA2015 and IMR 8208 both seemed to shoot well. I just ordered some H-322 to try.
