I know go to the books, I have. Now what works for you guys in an encore in 7mm rem mag. I am going with the Barnes 160 tripplethingy bullet and work from there. Retumbo ? Fed 215 ? what works in general. I am just trying this out so I hope you folks can point me in the right direction and give me a staring load for my mochine.

I might be a little old fashioned but I stick with things that I know works. The 7mm Rem Mag likes H-4831 or IMR-4831. This caliber may work super with some of the new powders, but I know it works well with these powders. As far as bullets go, I only use Sierra or Nosler in 7mm.
Keep your powder dry and your flint sharp
