[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 1699741, member: 109378"] I have three 7mm-08, two with 20" pipes and one with 22" pipe. I load 46 gr RL 17, CCI BR 2 Primer, Lapua Brass and 145 Barnes LRX. The load shoots good enough in all three I didn't fiddle with it to make it rifle specific. I get ~2770 in the 20" pipes and 2844 in the 22". The wife used her Weatherby Camilla and that load with 20" pipe to outstanding results on plains game in Africa this last May/June. Kids have over 70 DRT kills over 28 yrs with the Browning A bolt Micro Medallion and I have some great groups shot but no kills :-)...yet with the new Fierce Firearms CT Carbon Edge--Mule Deer, Elk and White Tails coming up soon. I love the 7mm-08. [/QUOTE]
