7mm Rem and retumbo .714 @200 Yards

[704]

I was re-checking zero on my long range hunting rifle and test a few loads, I got a nice 200 yard group of .714
rifle is a Mauser 98 commercial I built with Pacnor Super match barrel, and Huskemew Optic, Caliber 7mm Rem



not a bad group, but need to crono it

Very nice group indeed! What bullet weight and make was it?

Just getting ready to try some 168's. What brass and primer are you using?

You should be in the 2900-2950 range as far as speed goes, if you are running a 26 inch barrel. I have had great luck with H1000 also,@ 67.5 grains, WLR primer, @ 3.336 OAL. That yields 2977, and extremely accurate, and always consistent. Good shootin'.
