[QUOTE="Allen Lone wolf, post: 3068833, member: 121301"] I was looking at the same project and went with the savage ultralight in 7mmprc. I've reloaded since 1972 but wanted to find a decent factory round since it will eventually be my son's who won't reload. I tried available factory ammo and found Hornady did not shoot nowhere close to their advertised muzzle velocity 175gr.eldx precision hunter was 2699-2769 and best group 3/4"@100yds. 160cx shot worse. I finally nailed it with Federal premium with 2980fps with only 11fps dev. Group was 3/16" @100yds.I was using a APA Lil bastard tunable muzzle brake and Leupold MkIV 6.5x20x50 scope. With those "perfect" conditions I have no doubt it's capabilities @ 1000yds. I've also installed the APA Cone of Shame trigger is 1lb 4oz. [/QUOTE]
