[QUOTE="Idaho Lefty, post: 1559421, member: 104437"] [USER=72601]@Creedmoor shooter[/USER] I had, a 26" Rem model 700 and it shot very well, a good Cartridge for most "Hunter's". I was shooting, the Hornady 154 grain InterBond's at, 3,100 FPS and it was accurate ! I shaved off, a Pound with, the T3 Tikka and 2" off the barrel, it was my "excuse" for trying, a New Rifle, LOL ! To answer your question about, the 162 grain ELD-X in 7mm-08, I doubt that 2,800 FPS is "doable" without serious, "Pressure" ! He was able to get, 2,850 FPS with, 44.5 grains of RL-17 w/ the 150's ( top pressure, in HIS Rifle at, 40* -50* Temp's ). Trust me, IF my son could have got good/ repeatable group's,.. he'd be a shootin' it ! [/QUOTE]
