[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1362762, member: 12995"] Unfortunately, you're factory 9.25" twist barrel will be the weak link in your system. It will not stabilize the bullets you will need to shoot the 7mm-08 to 1000 yards. You will need a barrel with a 1:8 twist to handle the heavier high-BC bullets. Also, shooting to 1000 yards is not something you can instantly do, no matter what rifle or caliber or bullets you're shooting. It's something you have to gradually work up to, and is a learned skill-set. It has just as much to do with your shooting skills and training, as it does with the quality of your handloads, and your rifle's ability to accurately shoot that far. [/QUOTE]
