[QUOTE="SansSouci, post: 1002697, member: 84520"] Hi Brian, I own a 7MM Rem Mag. It is an extremely accurate rifle. Since your rifle shot accurately at 250 yards and opened up substantially beyond that distance, my first though is bullet stability. Is your rate-of-twist correct for a long bullet? I have no knowledge of VLD bullets. I use Sierra and Nosler bullets exclusively. Maybe this might help: buy a box of Sierra MatchKing bullets and see how they shoot at 600 yards. Sierra MatchKing bullets are extremely accurate. Or you could try 150 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips. They will shoot on top of each other out of my 7MM Rem Mag. I honestly don't think that there is anything wrong with your rifle. But I might be wrong. If your rifle is sideways, it wouldn't be accurate at 250 yards. Something is happening between 250 yards and 600 yards. And I think that that thing is external ballistics. I hope that you're able to resolve your problem. And I hope that it turns out to be a very minor one at that. [/QUOTE]
