[QUOTE="Dan B, post: 98723, member: 367"] Being a short barrel junky (XP's, Strikers, and T/C's)...I can tell you that even the slower powders will still work well. My 16" 7mm-08 Savage Striker loves H414 and 154gr Hornady SST's. Varget also works very well. I get reliable expansion on deer to nearly 300yards...longest range I have taken a deer w/ that particular combo. MV is near 2500fps. I don't like faster powders that hit a high pressure spike right off the bat. I prefer a slower push of the bullet down the bore. [/QUOTE]
