Ok, I know this won't impress many of you but I have my new light weight 7 stw shooting consistent 3/4 moa groups with me doing the hanloding and trigger pulling. (in 5-15 gusting winds) I am not sure how much more the rifle is capable of. It has a rem. Factory barrell and action from a used 700 sps just recut to stw with 168 bergers. Wish I had the dough for a really good barrel!
Any way I took it out today for practice and had great fun busting milk jugs out to 600 yds. These were feild conditions, including gettin rained on and this is promising cause I have an antelope tag next week!! I think I'll try and keep.the shot under a quarter mile, repetitve first round hits have been easy at that range. sometimes the wind threw me off the jug an inch or two out at 600
