We spent a lot of time building loads for this wildcat and had great success. We were using it mainly for varmint hunting back then. Extremely flat with it sighted 1.5 inch over at 100 yards. 3/8" groups were common. First shoot I entered I could not hit the target at 500 years until I reduced my holdover to about 30 inches...super flat Remington 700 rebarreled to 7 STW. Pillar bedded Will have to provide the twist later. 125 gr Nosler Ballistic Tip 87 or 89 grains of....i'll have to this later dont remember COL TBD Magnum Primer 8mm Magnum cases necked down to 7mm Had to use 7mm Magnum dies back then since no 7 STW dies existed yet.
