7mm Remington Magnum Load Data & Ballistics Calculator

Estimate chamber pressure and muzzle velocity for the 7mm Remington Magnum with the free, in-browser MyLoads internal ballistics simulator. The figures below are illustrative estimates from a physics model — not a recommended load. Always cross-check a current published loading manual.

Muzzle velocity

2,688 fps

Peak chamber pressure (interval, ±10% burn rate)

36,137 – 45,212 – 55,209 psi

nominal is 74% MAP (61,000 psi)

Pressure for this powder is extrapolated from a velocity-only fit — the pressure figures carry extra uncertainty in both directions.

Illustrative example — every figure is an estimate; always confirm your load against a current published manual before loading.
