    7mm Wea Mag 168 gr ABLR QL request

    Dr Vette, I have a good supply of RL 25 so did not consider RL 26, but I would think it work work about the same. The Weatherby Factory 160 AB's shot about 1" in my rifle and I have been able to slightly better that with my handloads. MY VVN160, 67.0 gr, 3100 fps load shoots about 3/4 inch...

    7mm Wea Mag 168 gr ABLR QL request

    7mm Wea Mag 168 gr ABLR QL request

    Scotty, rifle has a Weatherby chamber. It was a Mark V originally that I sent back to Weatherby for a conversion to Accumark after the accuracy of my original barrel fell off to below what I was happy with. I went ahead and loaded the 168 gr ABLR with 74 and 76 gr Retumbo and will report back...

    7mm Wea Mag 168 gr ABLR QL request

    Scotty, I have been loading 160 gr Accubonds with VVN 160 getting about 3/4 in groups and 3100 fps. I primarily hunt white tailed deer and have been satisfied with this load, able to ring steel targets out to 600 yds with relative ease. Just on a whim , since I had ordered some 150 gr and 168...

    Thanks. In Louisiana I am not at all worried about cold weather changes and try to work up my loads in the summer heat of 80-100 deg. Right now it is 80-90 deg each day. Today I reshot my 45.0 gr load at 2.826" and got .860" group, basically the same as the .740" group I got earlier. However...
