Hey folks I've got a good mate of mine who has asked me to reload for him due to factory 7mm08 ammo shortages.
He will supply components etc and I'll do the load development both on the bench and then do the range work to follow up.
So my query is.
What projectile?.
Rifle is a Tikka t3 22" with a dpt and a vx5 3-15x44.
Game: red deer.
Distance: 150-500y
Things that come to mind are: 154gr ssts, 150gr ballistic tips, 150gr Tipped gamekings.
For powder I was going to run IMR 4166. Cases are no worry and for primers I was thinking tried and true federal large rifle.
This rifle isn't a hunting rifle but is a farm rifle so gets used frequently hence he doesn't have the time to reload.
Just thought I'd ask incase I've missed something in my homeworking.
Cheers folks
