[QUOTE="coyotezapper, post: 1330267, member: 20438"] I shoot the 168 LRAB in a 7SAUM and it is a very accurate bullet. I have tested it in wet phone books but that is it. From what I can tell by these tests I expect it to perform very good on game. Don't worry about COAL or jump numbers. Start your testing at magazine length and then seat deeper to tune if needed. My 7SAUM shoots 1" .010" in the lands and in the "ones" at .030" jump. There is no one absolute in seating depth. Seating bullets deeper will decrease case capacity and increase pressures / velocities, but as long as you stay within recommended load specs you will be fine. For example if you use Nosler data then use Nosler brass. Case capacity differences between manufactures can make a big difference in pressures. Use a chrono if possible and don't exceed max velocities listed. As far as your powder choice I would recommend switching to RL26 or H4831. RL26 is one of the most linear powders I have ever worked with and gives a little more velocity that H4831. RL26 is ideal for this case. [/QUOTE]
