[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 284941, member: 2736"] I have tried almost every bullet, powder combination and these were the best I found for the 7/08 Remington. For hunting - The 120 gr ballistic tip, 49.5 gr H 414 and a cci br2 primer. For running bore shoots = 140gr Barnes x (they retain weight longer on steel targets) 41grs H4895 and rem large rifle primer. For long range target = 168 gr SMK, 43.5gr H4350 and a remington large rifle primer. These loads were for a Remington short action custom with a 20" shutz brothers hunter bench rest stainless barrel. All loads shot under 1/10 of an inch 5 shot groups. With the advent of Varget I have a good load I'm working on In the neighborhood of 45 grs and the 120 BT. These are in my rifle . The only load that seams to shoot well in every rifle I have tried them in was the H 414 load. I hope this helps J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
