[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1556485, member: 12"] IMO .5 grain jump is a little too large for a 7-08 case from my experience. That size case I use .3 increments and .5 on larger magnum cases. I would shoot from 43.4 to 44.2 with .2 increments and three shot groups. Watch your chrono and groups. Pick the best and most uniform in SD/ES with group and then do seating depth test starting at Max magazine COAL minus .010. I never liked crowding a magazine. The 150 might be good for elk and larger game, but in that caliber the 120 ballistic tip is a proven winner time after time and shoots flatter. You should be able to easily hit 3000 fps with it in the AI. I am 2990 fps in my regular 7-08. [/QUOTE]
