    Beavis Iv done a couple of 7-08s with 162 amax, RL17 is pretty good for velocity and gave around the 2700 mark in 22-23 inch barrels. I would suggest staying away from the 160 accubond even the 140s struggle to reach speeds needed for good reliable expansion from a 708. I don't considder the barnes a long range bullet but Im a big fan when used light for cal and driven hard. The heavier with better BC thing is not relevant where they are concerned IMHO.
    Just a slopy retrobate
