Canon R7 Grain Issues

Hello, I recently got a R7 and have been having some problems with grain. I shoot aviation photography and noticed most pictures have visible grain to them. Here’s a picture I took recently and when zooming in it has noticeable grain. My settings were 1/1000, F5.6 and ISO 330. I’m not sure if 300 iso causes that much grain. Don’t get me wrong the photo is sharp and everything but the grain kind of just ruins the look of the plane itself. I’ve see others with R7’s and they produce clean sharp almost 0 grain photos and I know it’s something on my part I just need help figuring it out. One more thing I shoo in raw and my lens is a sigma 150-600

I'm not really seeing the grain you are talking about, there may be a little but not much.  How much are you zooming in on your monitor to see it?  When you processed the raw did you boost the exposure much?

Is this a crop?

we need to see the whole raw file

The image was not boosted pretty much at all exposure wise, the only lighting changes were done to the background. I can understand how it’s not visible in that picture but when looking the photo in the RAW version it has noticeable grain to it even when zoomed out. The zoom was minimal only zooming into where the front cockpit is in view. I tried removing the grain in lightroom, but it ends up removing the sharpness of the plane and ruining it more.

Nope that’s the original file from import

What about sharpness? Is it set to 40?
