    140 gr Nosler ballistic tips are a better projectile for 7-08 particularly at the velocities you are like to be getting, ELD-X or M likewise. 160 Accubonds are a very tough projectile that works well in 7mm WSM from what I've seen, probably 7mm RM and 280AI at also, but they require velocity and placement to break bone to be efficient.
    Just going to take a look around the next bend...
