NEW Accurate High Country Gunpowder for Reloading 7mm Backcountry Adam Scepaniak   09.01.26 Hodgdon has announced a new Accurate High Country gunpowder specifically formulated to reload 7mm Backcountry, which should be fantastic news for anyone who has been scratching their head wondering what powder to use. Ever since Federal introduced the 7mm Backcountry, handloaders have been asking the same question: what do we load it with? With Accurate High Country being a double base spherical rifle powder, you get a true magnum rifle propellant that refuses to choose between versatility and raw performance.

A progressive burn rate curve keeps velocity high at the muzzle and downrange as well. A difficulty in reloading 7mm Backcountry has been that instead of traditional brass, the 7mm Backcountry uses a one piece steel alloy case Federal calls “Peak Alloy.” That stronger case lets the cartridge run at 80,000 PSI – well beyond the roughly 65,000 PSI of a typical modern magnum. The payoff is magnum velocity out of shorter, lighter barrels. After a global propellant search, Accurate High Country delivered the best ballistic performance for the round, with an ideal balance of burn speed and barrel wear. Flame temperature is a critical part of that fit. Steel cases behave differently than brass, and High Country burns cooler than other magnum rifle powders, making it an ideal partner for both the case construction and the pressure this cartridge runs at. Less energy lost to flame temperature also means less muzzle flash and less blast. - Accurate High Country | 1 Lb Bottle | SKU:HICO1 | MSRP $51.99 - Accurate High Country | 8 Lb Bottle | SKU:HICO8 | MSRP $370.99 A Word from Accurate on their NEW High Country Gunpowder Accurate High Country is a premium spherical, double-base rifle powder engineered to unlock the full performance potential of the Federal 7mm Backcountry cartridge. Delivering consistent ignition, excellent metering, and optimized burn characteristics, High Country is equally well-suited for modern magnum platforms including the 7mm PRC, .300 PRC, and Winchester Short Magnum cartridges. This versatile powder is an excellent choice for conventional .243 Win, .270 Win, and .300 Win Mag across the spectrum of bullet weights. Designed for reloaders who demand precision and reliability across a range of high-performance applications. Final Thoughts Whether you are attempting to reload a “wildcat” cartridge, or something that has been invented and widely adopted like what Federal has done with the 7mm Backcountry, it can always be a tall task to figure out what powders to use on new rounds. Thankfully, Hodgdon has been clutch in delivering an answer to a lot of people’s questions with the new Accurate High Country.
