Hoping you guys can offer some suggestions on where I can go from here. 7mm Rem Mag, 26" barrel, trying to get the 168 Berger VLD to shoot well. Worked up to 71.5 gr. Retumbo in half grain increments, then started trying seating depths from .005" off lands to .020" off, in .005" increments. The loads @ 71 gr and 70.5 gr seated .005" off the lands are promising, with 2 in same hole, and 1 out (sometimes 1st and 2nd in same hole, sometimes 1st and 3rd in same hole), but still nothing better than about 1-1/2" group. Using Federal brass, CCI 250 primers. I would really like to shoot these bullets, but right now my best groups are actually Rem factory ammo w/150 gr. Sciroccos (3/4"). Any ideas on what to try next?
