Well I got a chance to do a little more shooting with the 7mm using 175gr Sierra match kings and Berger target 180gr VLD both 10 shot groups were ugly. I have been using RL23 with a stiff load this barrel clearly doesn't like that powder combination so I plan on going back to RL25 an see what happens. I also plan on slowing the velocity down to around 2980fps because 3,100fps has not worked it seems the sweet spot for most 1,000 yard accuracy loads is just below 3,000 fps.
I plan on doing more testing with my 6.5/284's since Berger just released their new 156gr EOL bullet it has a high BC yet it doesn't have a radical design they might shoot good time will tell.
