[QUOTE="GNERGY, post: 567366"] The Rem 700 sps tactical I have only has a 20 inch tube with a 12 twist and I shoot 168 gr. Berger VLD's with 44gr. IMR 8208 XBR, CCI br2 primers loaded to 3.00in OAL. They average 2675 fps. and can keep them under 3 inches at 500 meters (560yds.) I have been using Hornady match brass that I got from some of the local police snipers and it is pretty inconsistant ( neck thickness wise ) so I have been trying to straighten them out. Hoping my gun will shoot better. I don't plan on shooting mine any farther than 600 yds. My friend has the same gun as yours and loads 41.5 gr. IMR 8208 and 168 gr Berger VLD's in Lapua brass and I watched him shoot 3 5 shot groups at 500 yds under 2 inches. That is why I switched from the SMK's to the Bergers. Keep us posted on what shoots good for you. Good luck Tarey [/QUOTE]
