[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 23395, member: 8947"] Tim, Glad you are on your way to enjoying long range shooting. The performance from your 06 is great. Give those other bullets a try. They may work well for you. I presently shoot 155gr AMax and have had excellent plinking accuracy from 1500 to 1960 yds. Maybe a lighter bullet will work for what you want? With your 7Rem shooting so well, give the 162gr Amax a try. Using H1000, Retumbo or similar, you should be able to get 3000fps. If it shoots, this will make a great long range hunting and target load. With any of your rifles, have a look at the shape of the group. If there is obvious stringing, change the powder. You can decrease your group size about 1/2 by changing powders that don't string. Match primers help too. Good luck... Jerry [/QUOTE]
