[QUOTE="frankinaustin, post: 1042866, member: 71931"] All of the below are based on accurate groups. Don't worry about killing power on any of these. If your bullet can strike your game animal, it will die before it hits the ground. Just get the bullet there. What may seem "underpowered" on a 7mm-08 is a real powerhouse. I would think if you are going elk or moose hunting, just tell your buddies and your guide that your rifle is a 300 wsm. They will never know the difference. 145 LRX and 42.6 gr Varg 120 TTSX and 48.4 gr Varg 120 NBT and 35.2 gr H4895 (tender load) 130 Speer and 40.2 gr IMR 4064 (same hole accuracy) 120 NBT and 45.0 gr IMR 4350 145 Speer Hotcor and 42.2 gr Varg 160 Speer Hotcor and 41.0 gr W760 130 Speer and 38.5 gr Varg (tender load) [url=http://sed88.tripod.com/rem7/peth.html]7mm-08 Remington. . .
