[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1661453, member: 2736"] This is my favorite 7/08 load also. I also have great Accuracy and velocity using H 414 with the 120 grain Ballistic Tip. I have killed deer at distances beyond 500 yards with the 7/08, so it is more than capable of 200 yard shots. I would look for any load combination that produce velocities over 3000 ft/sec at the muzzle. This produces good bullet performance and trajectories to the point of impact. For elk I would load the 140 Accubond and keep the distance to around 200 yards as suggested. the 140s will only do 2800 ft/sec so the effective range is less J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
