Greetings O Bored One, You wont get a lot of velocity from the 165 so it might be better to go lighter, 125 or 130 grain. These should give 2,200 fps easily while keeping pressures low, a good idea...

Definitely the front base is wrong for the rifle and is too high causing the rifle to shoot low. Take it of and replace it with the right one, a no 36, or fit a 20 MoA base. Job done. GPM.

That wimpy thing. Not a patch on the 700 Nitro that came out a few years back. Regarding the 600 nitro if you have to ask how much the ammo costs you can't afford it. It fires a 900 grain projectile...

Greetings. From a 20" Bergara barrel 41 grains of AR2206H should produce around 2,500 fps with the 150 grain Norma semi pointed projectile. This is interpolated between 38 and 44 grain chronographed...
