Barrel heats up fast and mine isn't real accurate after the first couple shots; but when you only need one that doesn't much matter. Anyway, when sighting in keep in mind that the gun may not match a cold barrel shot after several rounds. I have the same issue with my 257 Weatherby; maybe just my guns. I can make you a deal on some factory 7mm Weatherby ammo if you have trouble finding some. Good luck and enjoy.

...mine was made in Japan...thanks for the offer on the ammo...I'll probably buy a box for a quick fix...and then start collecting components to reload...
