Wow is that nice! I guy could sure use one

 

[Lefty7mmstw]

yup, getting 2400 fps from a mild I4895 load with a 154 or 2500 fps from a bit stouter sta-ball load and a 150nos. bt. with our Striker 7-08 that I put together a while back. 139 gr. Hornady factory pills go about 2550 fps from the little pistol.

I've had an M700 short action .473" bolt face in the safe for years now wondering what to do with it.

Your pictures sure get a guy thinking!

What is your 150 ELDX load if I can ask? I'm picking up my 7-08 custom rifle build today.

 

[WSMDRT]

I have thought of a rifle scope and have some i can try. I had this pistol scope and thought id try it. I wanted to make this a little something different for now.

 

[Ernie]

Roger that

 

[WSMDRT]

I'm at the book/hodgdon site max for varget or a little over. 41 to 42 grains at 2.82 COAL or 48.5gr of Staball6.5. Safe in both rifle and pistol build for me.
