I am starting to work up a new load for the mentioned gun above. Does anyone have experience with this gun and long range accubond that produced good results.
Any other load powder and seating depth info anyone is willing to share on this rifle is much appreciated.
Looking to stay above 180 grains on the bullet weight.

How's the recoil on you Ridgeline? I have one in 6.5CM and thinking about getting another in 7mm RM. I don't hunt with a brake so not sure about the recoil, much of which has to do with weight and stock geometry.

I don't hunt with a brake so not sure about the recoil, much of which has to do with weight and stock geometry. It handles recoil very well! I’m really surprised at how well this rifle balances out, I would say the recoil is similar to a standard weight 308 Winchester..
