I had only 15 bullets left that were ready for use. Powder coated. 9,5 grs N32c/ BTF gave approximately 2,5 MOA 5- shot group at 100m. At 9,8 grs N32c/BTF, the group opened up. I also tried 9 grs Universal, PEF; only two bullets hit the target at 100m!.
I think the nose is (even with one layer of PC) vastly undersized for this rifle, probably the reason for the poor results PEF.
Will try some testing with another rifle with better accuracy potential, the Schultz & Larsen 97DL, with the .30-06 barrel.
Regarding the Remington 700, I have had it with mediocre accuracy. It is scheduled for major surgery at my gunsmith (who has a backround as an international level BR shooter on the national team).
