[QUOTE="g0rd0, post: 1217586, member: 44168"] How does it shoot fact. ammo? If you have the same results then I would contact Remington now. If fact. ammo works good then stick with that bullet weight, save 1 rnd measure its oal then pull the bullet dump the powder fire off the primer reseat the bullet just enough to hold it in place and chamber it, measure that oal and compare the 2 oal's the difference is how far off the lands your rifle likes that weight. remember that Now using whatever choice of bullet in the above weight size a piece of brass and seat your bullet in the EMPTY UN PRIMED brass just enough to hold it and chamber take a oal measurement and subtract what ever figure you have come up with, that is your seating depth. EG, a fact rnd = oal 3.5",,,, at .025" off the groves gives you 3/4" @100 yrd then whatever brand of bullet you load you want use the same weight and seat it .025 off the groves, your oal will change but as long as it cycles thru the mag you should be able to find a sweet spot with any of the popular powders for that cal [/QUOTE]
