Remington 742 ? Nothing seems to work

[Dom]

I'll call it luck, but I had a load for another '06 when I bought a 7400, and tried that load in it. I wasn't looking for 1 MOA, and didn't get that, but I did get 1.5 to 2 MOA, which is satisfactory for that rifle as a drive hunt gun. Shots over 100 meters are rare, and inside that it does the job very well. That load was IMR 4350 pushing a 180gr Nosler Partition, so you may want to try 180's in that 742. You never really know what combination is going to work, so try a few variations out. Sometimes you get lucky, Waidmannsheil, Dom.
