7mm br suggestions

[keeper89]

Dusted off my old xp-100 in 7br and got to thinking it might be a fun unit with cast--anybody got any suggestions for molds and/or loads they have had success with? Any info will be mucho appreciated {sigh--another gb on gas checks is in my future....} thanks in advance.......

keeper,
depending on the chamber/bore dimensions,lots of molds can work. I have a box stock xp 7br and my buddy bought a rebarreled one. His brass will fit sloppily in my chamber while mine is too large to fit his. I have used a lyman 168fn a 135 Lee(?) and a fat 280468 Lyman. The last mold is SUPPOSED to be for the 270.It drops a 285 dia bullet (loverin style) from lyman # 2 alloy that weighs about 112 grains.I have used 748 powder with some success.

Keeper89, You might want to try a Saeco 281 style boolet.

Thanks for the replies, fellas. I know the 7br is a bit of an odd duck but it has provided me with a great deal of fun with condoms, just feel like it should be as much fun with real boolits--and all that fun to be had playing........here we go again!
