[QUOTE="GoodmanCPA, post: 1452090, member: 57398"] I had my Remington Model 700 converted from 7 mm Remington Mag. to 7 mm STW by Bob Hart. Hart 24" barrel with 2" muzzle brake. Loaded IMR 7828, 79.8 grains pushing 140 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets. 4 shots in one hole at 100 yards. Bob killed elk long range with the same rig. I wish I had loaded Accubonds. They have same ballistic coefficient and are tougher. I do not use factory loads, just hand loads. Very happy. Beware magazine is too short for shells with bullets touching rifling in the chamber. So load first round touching, and follow-up rounds slightly shorter to fit the magazine. The accuracy for follow-ups is still very good. [/QUOTE]
