A good day of shooting
 
I am extremely happy with the last loads for my 7mm RUM. 154 gn Hornady SST and 50 BMG powder.

1" groups at 300 yards.

Gosh!!! I wish i could shoot that good. you should think about shooting in matches that kind of group at 300 yards noone with a bench rifle could touch ya, imagine what you could do with match rifle with a kreiger barrel, jarden trigger the works you would be absolutely unstoppable in the benchrest world, your name will be on every world record and every company would be fighting each other just to sponsor you before you know it every shooting team will want you, that kind of shooting will get ya a gold medal in every event at that olympics. wow man wow!!! awesome shooting ;)

All the problems that I had before these loads with scope problems and load problems for the 7mm RUM, it is finally coming around.

I realize it is hard to get anyone to believe you on this site but what I will do is start scanning my targets.

Here is a question on the 7mmRUM. This load only shoots 1" at 100 yards, 1" to 1.5" at 200 yards and then 1" to 1.5" at 300 yards. Why is the groups not tighter at 100 yards?

High Desert Wolf,

Anytime you want to come and shoot with me, you are very welcome. I am so glad that I visit a site where you will be drug through the mud for doing something well.

The gun is a tricked out Remington 700 Sendero chambered in 7mm RUM. This is not just a STANDARD bench gun. But I am sorry that I offended you by being able to shoot very well. I will try to do worst next time. I shoot three and four times a week when I get the opportunity and I shoot with guys that have custom match guns and yes, when the load is right for my rifle I can shoot with them all day long.

It amazes me that you can come to this site and ask for help on problems that you are having with your rifles, keep working on the problem until you are satisfied, then come back to the site and tell everyone thanks for the help and that you are excited about what you did at the range with the guns, then get criticized and basically called a liar. Next I wont bother.

I've read that bullets can sometimes "wobble" around a center line of flight, I believe it's called precession.Supposed to be caused by an imperfect crown. (No crowns are perfect) Anyway,with distance or timethe bullet sort of "goes to sleep", similiar to a spinning top that settles down.This wouldcause groups to tighten with distance.
