[QUOTE="C Mahoney, post: 1485688, member: 90280"] I don’t have any experience with a 7-08, but I just picked up a Creedmoor. I bought the cheapest Tikka at Cabelas when it was on sale for about $560. I picked up some Hornady prescision hunter for about $30 a box with the 143 grain ELDX bullets. I was able to shoot consists t .5-.75 minute groups at about 2650 FPS with that ammo. I just shot a muley at 200 yards on Saturday with the rifle. Went in right behind the right shoulder, into the left shoulder, breaking the bone and found the bullet under the skin. The bullet looked perfect and seemed to retain the majority of its weight. I plan on putting a brake on the rifle so my wife will want to practice with it. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
