[QUOTE="Texis, post: 2725896, member: 121376"] The newer powders (Staball 6.5) have changed a lot of cartridges. My 708 loses 150-175 fps with tradition stuff.. ie Varget (which is very accurate in mine) i live and develop loads on the warm gulf coast and hunt in the much colder Texas panhandle so I won’t attempt to hunt / shoot LR with non- temp stable powders. The Staball 6.5 ball powder is a game changer in 708. If I had to buy factory ammo, doubt I would shoot a 708, options are just old school **** poor compared to what this cartridge can do when hand loaded with modern components. [/QUOTE]
