Took my 7600 30-6 18.5" barrel w/Leupold 2 X7 scope on it to the range for zero. Loaded 165gr Nosler bullets, Win Brass, Win Primers and 57.5grs of H4350 powder. Well I know what my hunting round is now. Took 16rds to zero it, less than MOA at 100yds. If anyone can find a better black bear gun then this I will have to see it to believe. I fell in love with this gun today, quick handling, accurate and weather proof.
I don't know if I should shoot 180gr Nosler thru it as I am not hunting Grizzlies but everything smaller and I think the 165gr Nosler Partition will take care of them all. The only compaint I have about the rifle is I can't clean it thru the rear of the rifle, so I will try to use all plastic I can to protect the crown.
