Someone was after a load for a bushpig 7mm08?
Starting from 36.0 of 2208 working up 0.5gr to 40.0
My model 7 with 160gr TMK seated to mag length did this. Flat primers but easy bolt lift and no other pressure signs(2.780"COAL). 2430FPSAttachment 151685Attachment 151685Attachment 151686
Most groups around 1" or better.
Nice!
A short barrel 708 can be a handy and useful little gun.
I took my 15 inch barreled model 7 7mm08 away on a fallow hunt a couple of weekends ago.
Had no problem neck shooting a yearling at 265 yards.
140gr NBT at 2700 fps.

From memory RL15 or RL16 may give you more velocity.
If you need either one I have a mate who lives you're way whose visiting.
Will be back up in town on monday.
Could drop powder off? If you need it
Cheers mate but I'm trying to use up some of my ADI powders that I have stored up, I ended up loading with ADI2208, loaded up around 30rnd and will see what they want to do. I don't foresee shooting at any long ranges while hunting on horse back, I can close in to a respectable distance that way. So long they go bang and hit where I pointed them, I'm a happy man.Quote:
