    In answer to a question that you didn’t actually ask..

    Yes you should reload for it. Find a consistent load, like a 1 moa on a bad day load. Then find a better load, then try some other projectile and powder combos just for shits and giggles.

    After all that you will know your rifle inside and out and that 500m shot won’t actually seem that far, not that it will matter because you will then go out and buy a fast 7mm for your new long range obsession.
