Dvan, Im running into the same thing as far as not getting the accuracy that Im accustomed to. However I havent had a chance to start reloading for it yet. Im shooting a box of factory bullets that came with the gun. Even with the factory loads Im getting 1"-1 1/4" @ 100yds with it. I also have the 516 model but in the 260. I have to admit carry this gun seems to be heavier than carrying some of my rifles BUT it is one cool gun to hunt with.
