[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1824274, member: 2736"] After testing many different bullets and bullet weights, I found that the 7/08 did a better job on game using the 120 grain ballistic tip. The 120 Ballistic has a heaver jacket and velocity in a better performance range. The 7/08 AI does well with the 140 grain Accubond at velocities around 3000 ft/sec. If Nosler made a 120 or 130 grain Accubond I would have to try them. The velocities are above 3000 ft/sec and do very well @ distances of 5 to 600 yards. Accuracy has been great in all of my 7/08's using H 414 and Varget. H 414 has been the most accurate with groups holding below .100 with Varget running a close second with velocities over 3100 ft/sec. My 7/08 pistols like the 150 grain ballistic tips and has dropped 3 deer beyond 500 yards. (My self imposed limit with a pistol). I also have had the best accuracy using CCI Br2 primers.
