Found quite a bit of 7mm ammo at fleet farm here but I stop in every couple weeks to look for certain things.

You may want to Google Ammo Seeker and see what you can find. I shoot model 70's. Without more details, have you tried different brands and bullet weights of ammo? Checked the action screws as well as mounting screws?
I have nothing clever to put here.

Winchester Model 70: I'll assume the barrel is free floated. Tighten the front and rear action screws down tight. The middle screw should be brought up snug, then back off a half turn.

Checked the action screws as well as mounting screws? I've tried different brands but nothing over 150 grains Federal Remington and Winchester. It could even partially be me I have noticed a flinching problem LOL

As far as ammo goes I got a couple boxes for my brother at Wal Mart $31 a box. It's just luck to come across any ammo especially this time of year. Now for the gun, put a brake on it or get a milder shooting caliber. I hate recoil and won an auction on gunbroker for a 270 that came with a brake. What a difference, virtually no recoil. I've got another 270 and if I start using that most likely there will be a brake put on it as well.

if your bothered by the recoil you need better hearing protection

if your bothered by the recoil you need better hearing protection Amen to That^^^ And sometimes you need to wear that hearing protection while re training yourself with a low recoil firearm. Wear the plugs and ear muffs. Your flinch is more from the brain saying, " here it comes"

Green, I'm having the same issue with 308 ammo...A couple of people on here have suggested websites, but I found here in NY you HAVE TO have an FFL to order ammo online...

I have three boxes from three different manufacturers in three different weights. I try to buy a couple of boxes within the same lot number for consistency sake but don't always manage to do so. They all group pretty close so it's not a huge issue. Put this little guy down with it yesterday morning. Rattling and a few doe bleats did him in. That buck will score high on the plate scale.
