Is there a favorite bullet for 7mm Rem mag. I've seen that Lee sells a mold that casts a 130gr bullet. Has anyone tried this bullet or others? I think that casting some rifle bullets would make good bullets to practice with.

The RCBS 145 Silhouette FP and the RCBS 168 Silhouette FP both can produce very accurate loads with Unique or 4227. Using LBT blue and GCs Size to groove diameter and they will run 1500 to 1700 without I’ll effect. I use 7-2-1 alloy.
