[QUOTE="Drummer Boy, post: 628891, member: 40031"] Hope you dont mind a few cents worth from another 7mm08 fan. Unfortunately I have no experience with the h380 but I have had three 7mm08's and the powders that have always worked best in mine have been the varget with 120 gn projectiles and the h414/4350 and 140 gn projectiles with compressed loads. accuracy has always been excelent. I wont give out the powder charge for obvious reasons but h414 or what we call in Australia AR2209 (and CCI mag primer) is by far the the best in my sako fitted with 26 inch Maddco barrel. Velocities are between 2995 and 3010fps with 140 Sierra GK. The mag primer may seem a little strange in a small case like the 7mm08 but it seems to go well with the compressed load and long barrel. Also, accuracy improved dramatically when I switched to the hotter primer. I have also had good results with W760 with all bullet weights but it seems to be a very dirty powder. Hope this helps you out. [/QUOTE]
