[QUOTE="TrentK16, post: 1016913, member: 80865"] So before hunting season started this year I started working up my first load for my browning a-bolt 7mm rem mag, Using 168gr Berger vlds. I anticipated starting with the bullet touching the lands but ran into an issue. Last minute I remembered that my rifle has an internal box magazine so I had to back off the lands .069" for the bullets to fit in my magazine. So since I didn't have a whole lot of time I just started with my seating depth there and went with it. Shot my ladder test then loaded up a few rounds with the load I liked and shot those. They shot well, around 3/4 moa which I was very pleased with. My question is; is there any options for a different internal mag so I can maybe get the bullet seated closer to the lands or should I just go with what I have??? I just put a McMillan stock on it to so I'm not looking at replacing my stock any time soon. [/QUOTE]
