    even at 2650 its carrying the magic (mythic) 1000 ft/lbs to 700 yards. keep meaning to try the amaxes in my 7mm08 but not sure how it will go in a 19'barrel...(can get 140s going 2850 ok though)

    Crnkin - what length barrel and what twist?

    I'm just trying to decide between a 7-08 and a 284 win barrel for a re-barrel project ...
    Getting older is compulsory, growing up is entirely optional.

    If its for the 601 7-08 will fit the mag better



    #3 was 46.5 gr of 2209 with the 150 corelokt going 2650, had them up to 2791 and grouped well (another target) but to be on the safe side went the slower load as it was winter...summer may have got the hotter one getting a bit to hot, 24" barrel
    Fishing ... Hunting its all good
