Thread: 7mm08 Short barrel

New to reloading. Advice please?

Rifle = Remington 700 Ti 7mm08 18" shortened barrel (bush gun)
Hunting round for deer 50m - 300m

I have not reloaded for this rifle but build up some items for reloading tomorrow.
Powder is ADI Benchmark 2

Using once fired Remington Coreloc brass.

I have a choice of two projectiles on hand.

1. Sierra Pro-hunter 140gr 1910

2. Hornady Interlock 139gr 2825

I am not planning on super accuracy and using a mates press so want to see from you experienced reloaders if you have any experience with this mix and which projectiles would you recommend starting out with?

I have been hunting 140 gr rem coreloc forever and been happy with this factory load, but as you know not readily available. I shoot maybe 20 - 30 rounds a year as rifle never moves its zero and mostly equates to a deer a bullet.

Thanks
