Just got into reading and I'm after some good loads people use.
Thanks in advance!!
Am using 140 NABs with 47gr RE17 (work up to it) 18" barrel Kimber. Have no idea what speed but close to 1/2 moa
AR2208 and the 140gr BT - perfect combination in the 7/08.
Hi, have got 110gn Barnes TTSX with 46.5gn of 2208 going reasonably well.
120TSX and RL15 was also very accurate and bloody murderous on deer in my rifle.Quote:

120 ballistic tip. 45 grains 2208. 2800 fps in 16.5 inch barrel. Possibly a bit tough on the suppressor but very accurate.

43.0 gr AR2208 but go to the ADI website for guidance on starting loads.
Full length sizing with headspace set to .003" resize each load. Norma brass reloaded up to 15x wihout annealing and still shoots OK but not 0.5 moa.
OAL limited by what can be ejected. Nowhere near lands.
This kills deer and goats well. Ok on targets to 500m. Havent tried to develop to a better load. Used the same for about 1800 rounds.
139gr sst and 50g 2209, max adi book load and was compressed, do you'll need to work up your own load. On a tikka and gets about 2925 fps.
