I would say this is typical for a 7mm Mag but I'm sober and trying not to TROLL as much.....

After 5:00pm all bets will be off

Self restraint is way overrated, Buzz. Let er rip! JG needs the stimulation anyway.

Jeff, It's a custom 7 Rem Mag, 1:9" twist. I started with the 195 Hybrids. I was getting round holes while I zero'd the rifle at 100. At 200, the 195's were going in [censored]-eyed (not key holing, but definitely not round holes). So, I drop down to the 180 VLD, which is a 1.51 stability factor according to Berger at 2950-3000 fps. I'm running H1000 in the sweet spot area where every 7 Mag I've ever shot shoots well with a 180 VLD touching the lands (not jammed, just touching). When doing a load work up, a good rifle will follow a pattern in the groups when increasing the powder charges in .3 to .4 grain increments. This rifle has no pattern at all, and is throwing shots all over the place in random fashion. Most groups have a vertical or diagonal string to the group. And the group location will change- meaning one group may impact slightly high and right. The next group may string left and high with no scope adjustment. So, the groups are stringing, and the location of the group changes.

But you have to catch them when they do, don't care what the barrel brand is, anyone can have an issue.

Would love to see picks of the gun. If it is a Fierce rifle (little google got me there) My understanding is those rifles are from John Mogle (guy that left Christensen arms) I believe they are in imports from canada? I think they are like a Canadian vs of a Sako from what I understand. When companies get large and go straight for box store/ dealer market and are paying the large FET fees its harder to catch them all. Especially if you are importing them.

No clue. I have an RA and will send it in.
