[QUOTE="diriel, post: 544002, member: 26983"] For the 7-08, I would consider the 162gr Amax bullet with Alliant 2000MR powder, Win LR primers, and Win Brass. This is actually a really sweet combination. For the rifle, I would go with something along the lines of a #6 or 7 taper and have it fluted and finished at 20" to 22" length. The great thing about the 7-08 is how efficient it is. Just make sure to have it twisted at about 1 in 8.5 and you will be fine. For the stock, Manners MSC-T is a really nice option, but then any of the Manners stocks are pretty sweet. Good shooting, Gary [/QUOTE]
