7mm Remington Magnum Ammo 2026: Hunting Loads From the Makers

By Cole Harlan, EditorUpdated Nov 4, 2026How we verifyEditorial standards

We checked 29 current 7mm Rem Mag loads on Federal's, Remington's and Hornady's own product pages on November 4, 2026: 14 from Federal, 7 from Remington and 8 from Hornady. The bullet weights, velocities, energy figures, test barrels and statuses below are copied from the maker pages. We don't use retailer prices or third-party ballistics. This is a comparison of popular loads from 3 makers, not every 7mm Remington Magnum load sold.

Grouping follows each maker's own usage label ("Big Game" and "Long Range"). Hornady prints no usage label or stock status on our capture, so its loads sit in their own table. The Cartridge column shows the name the maker page uses.

Hornady loads

Hornady's pages show no usage label and no stock status on our capture, so these loads are listed by product line. Velocity and energy are the muzzle figures from each page's ballistics table.

Barrel length matters: the test barrels

Muzzle velocity depends on barrel length, so compare loads tested on the same barrel. Of the 29 loads, 21 list no test barrel, 8 list 24 in. The loads with no test barrel are from Federal and Remington. A rifle with a shorter barrel than the maker's test barrel will likely give lower velocities than the box. SAAMI's test barrel for rifle cartridges such as the 7mm Remington Magnum is 24 in. For how velocity changes with barrel length in 7mm Remington Magnum, see our barrel length vs velocity data for 7mm Remington Magnum.

7mm Rem Mag: what SAAMI lists

SAAMI lists the cartridge as "7MM REMINGTON MAGNUM [7MM REM MAG]" in ANSI/SAAMI Z299.4, its centerfire rifle standard (approved Feb. 10, 2025). The cartridge drawing was issued 04/21/1980 and revised 12/06/2021. SAAMI lists a maximum average pressure of 61,000 psi, measured by transducer (the table shows 610 in psi/100), and 52,000 CUP by crusher (the table shows 520 in CUP/100). Cartridge overall length runs from 3.150 in minimum to 3.290 in maximum. Case length is 2.500 in (−.020), and bullet diameter is .2845 in (−.003). Bore is .277 in and groove is .2837 in, with 6 grooves and a twist of 1 in 9.50 in, right-hand (marked optional). Read the standard at the SAAMI Z299.4 PDF.

SAAMI says all standard rifle test barrels are 24 in long and that exterior ballistic data for centerfire rifle cartridges is based on that length. Its listed exceptions (7.62x39, 277 Sig Fury, 30 Carbine, 300 AAC Blackout and 300 HAM'R) do not include the 7mm Remington Magnum.

Not yet verified

These makers and loads are not in the tables.

Winchester: not checked for this caliber this round. The Winchester product pages we opened for other calibers on Nov. 4 said "There is no ballistics data available at this time," so we have no Winchester figures to copy yet.
SIG Sauer: the maker's site returned an access error (403) to our automated check, and we did not verify its product pages this round.
Speer and CCI: neither maker's caliber menu we captured lists 7mm Rem Mag (Speer's and CCI's menus show handgun and rimfire calibers), so we found no 7mm Rem Mag load from either maker and neither is in the tables.
Federal: Federal has no 7mm Rem Mag caliber page, so we found its loads through its product sitemap. A Federal 7mm Rem Mag load missing from that sitemap would not be in the table.
Test barrels and stock status: Federal and Remington pages list no test barrel on some loads, and Hornady's pages list no stock status.

2 loads in the tables carry a "Discontinued" badge on the maker page as of Nov. 4, 2026: Federal ELD-X P7RELDX1, Federal Nosler Partition P7RF. We list them because the maker page still shows them.
