I have had four of these rifles. I like the Mausers and this is a Commercial Mauser. Two have been 7mag. I have been working up loads for this one for a while. After re stocking and bedding. Then instaling new optic. Its become a very nice rifle. Light for a mag with a skinny barrel but is 24". I have owned for 7-8 years, but I Never took time to work ip a load. I found a 160Speer over H4350 shoots just over 1/2" groups. But "slow" at almost 2900.
I really want to be shooting a small score of Federal Terminal Ascent bullets. They are one awesome bullet. Long for weight @ 155g Hi BC for longer distance vel retention. I noticed they was longer then my 175's!!
Well... They will not stabilize and are inaccurate. Here is target.
I got it on the bench yesterday a d with a few tight patches and my bore scope I confirmed my fears... The barrel is twisted 1:10.25". I have never herd of such a 7mm barrel.
What do you guys say? Have you herd of this?
