[QUOTE="MachV, post: 398959, member: 93"] I put together an old J action Savage last year for deer hunting with a 22" 708 barrel. Being a big fan of H414 and likeing the light recoil of the 120Nosler vrs the wallop that the Amax was putting out I borrowed JE's load. I got the drop chart verified but was not really planning on a long shot, just something light enough to haul cross canyons. As it worked out the buck I decided to take was 675 yards out so I put the 4rth mildot on the bucks backline and let the 120 grain Nosler do the rest. Longh way around the barn but the 708 can and will get-r-done if you do your part to 600 yards...even with the 120 grain Noslers! [/QUOTE]
