[QUOTE="13point, post: 522243, member: 19216"] Thanks Dan, I have some cci mag. primers, I will load my next rounds with them and see what happens. This is my first try at the 7mm-08 with the 150 to 162 bullets. I've not been able to spend a lot of time with this one. I started out shooting Varget. It would produce 1" groups with the 162 AMax in the upper end of the load range. It would shoot around .6" with a light charge. I don't have a chronograph, just going by published data saying these are slow loads. I will say that the Nosler manual has been pretty close to the most accurate loads with this gun (unusual from my research). With a light charge of H414 and the 150 Swift SII, I shot a group Saturday around .45" and one yesterday that was the same. This was on the ground using a bipod and rabbit ear bag on the back (not the best setup for shooting good groups). I do have a range finder, these were at 105 yards. If the Nosler manual holds true, with H380 powder, it shows most accurate and best velosity. I might give it a try next, it's a ball powder so I assume mag. primers will be best with it also.
