[QUOTE="LaHunter, post: 1299257, member: 54963"] I shoot the 160 grain Accubonds with IMR 7828 with my 7mm rem mag and get sub .5 MOA out to about 700 yards, assuming the wind is not making an *** of me. But the gun / load combination is capable of that accuracy. For MY gun, I seat the bullets .015 from touching the lands. I measure that with a Hornaday compartor tool. Cartridge Base To Ogive (CBTO) is the measurement that you need to work with when seating your bullets. Do not waste your time measuring from Base to Tip. Also, you must re establish this measurement (CBTO) when you try different bullets in your rifle, since they will have a slightly different shape. Hope that helps [/QUOTE]
