[QUOTE="Daveinjax, post: 681773, member: 48429"] I shoot 7mm-08 as my main deer gun and have been shooting it for about 15 years. If I was just starting out I would go with Varget and the 139gr sst to start. I will not say what my Varget load is as it is hot hot hot! For the second choice I would go with H4350 . The H4350 is what I hunt with these days and gives the best performance in my 24" barrel. The Varget is a little faster burning for your 22" barrel and will yield 150 rounds + out of a pound while a warm H4350 load will yield just a bit under 150 per pound. Third time through a 50 count bag of brass you will have a couple of empty cases with H4350. I have shot over 100 deer with a 139gr sst and most where drt if I did my part. None that I hit well went far. Keep the loading cost down so she can shoot more. Being able to shoot well is the most important skill. A 22LR will kill any deer if you can hit them right :) . Good luck! [/QUOTE]
