[QUOTE="Guy M, post: 240725, member: 8622"] Where are you shooting? There's a hotbed of long-range precision shooting here in the Pacific Northwest and I could likely direct you to a range where you'd be able to shoot with some mighty fine LR shooters... There are some good scopes that will work fine at 500 or 600 yards. You might even consider a used 4.5-14x Leupold with the 1" tube. There's a surprising amount of elevation adjustment avail in those particular scopes and they're affordable on the used market. Also, Leupold honors the lifetime warranty even if you buy the scope used. I handload, but there are some very good factory options for the 7mm Rem mag. Look at Federal's 165 grain SPBT load - expensive but very good. HSM also offers a really nice load built around the 168 grain Sierra Matchking bullet that shoots quite well. [/QUOTE]
