[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 329110, member: 8"] If the distance was 100 yards then try the 88 grain load at 300 yards. A 7 RUM should have a 1-9 twist barrel which should be fine to stabilize the 175 grain bullet. Most likely cause is that you have some initial yaw which will go away at about 200 yards and by 300 yards be settled down You might check the crown and see if it is dinged. I would suggest you try the 175 SMK, the Berger 180 and the Accubond 160. You may find that the rifle actually prefers a bullet that you don't like. [/QUOTE]
