[QUOTE="el si, post: 421722, member: 25700"] I would work up the powder charge first before working on seating depth. I think of powder change changes as ‘coarse’ adjustments and seating depth changes as ‘fine’ adjustments. I suggest a solid rest for your gun. I found I can get tighter groups with a benchrest front rest and rabbit ear sandbag than with a bipod.:) [FONT="]Give some time between your shots also. I read that the 300RUM is hard on barrels. I have a Rem 700 SPS 300RUM and it gets pretty warm after 3 rds and really hot after 5 rds of fire-reload-fire.
