    Has anyone tried 760/414 powder with 162gr/7mm=08? It seems to be on the company data lists but I never hear of anyone in NZ using this combination.

    I use win 760 in my 18 inch kimber with 162 eldms.
    Mild load at 2500 fps but single ragged hole. Kills well.
    Interesting when you run the numbers compared to a faster 168 eldm in 308 which also kills well, but the 162 quickly over takes on velocity at distance.
    Good at 1800 fps easy
    rupert and superdiver like this.
