I am trying to get a load figured out for my AZ cow elk tag this year, and this is where Im at now. Im using a used, bone stock model 700 rem with 26" barrell and a 9.5 twist. The primers are fed 215, powder US869 and bullets (now) are 160g nos accubond. My groups now are 1.143" (at 100yds)...

Just back from the range today having shot the 160g nos accubonds. While they shot better than the A-max, I still need to get a lot of stuff figured out to be able to use this gun to its potential. Thanks to all for the help, Im off to the reloading forum next.

everyone, thanks for the insight on the amax. This is my first time loading for a magnum and im having a pretty tough time getting the amaxes to shoot. I want to figure this out but that will have to wait until after the hunt. I am not sure what to go with but am leaning towards the...

I may be overthinking this but the way I see it is. If scope is not perfectly parallel to and over bore the windage will only be good for the distance your sighted in for. I have a M1 Garand that once had an ofset scope mount, to sight this rifle in I had to aim scope right at 1.5 inches left...

I have a leupold vari-x-III 6.5-20X40 that im trying to mount on a rem 700 7mmrum. How can I tell if the scope is square on the receiver? I put the windage to mechanical 0 and mounted the scope and now need almost 22 minutes right to zero on bore sighter. If Im able to bore sight with the...

"Enter Me In The Nikon/Cameraland Contest".

I would like to thank all for opinions and to ask, please keep them coming. I will probably be saving up for these (whichever I decide on) for 8 to 12 months. With no local stores to look at, I am forced to wait for trips to bigger towns, but since the money isnt burning a hole in my pocket...
