    7mm-08 and Berger classic 168's

    Dino, I am interested in your findings with 2000 MR in regards to temp sensitivity especially if it yields higher velocities with better metering. Keep us posted.

    7mm-08 and Berger classic 168's

    Colcal, thanks for the quick load reference. I hope that the a-max's do start showing up again soon. I have had good luck with them for target and game and already have a load worked up for them. I have a feeling that it may be a while before we start seeing them in stock though.

    7mm-08 and Berger classic 168's

    Thanks Dino for the reply. I have contemplated using RL17 but I like the stability of hodgdon powders and we have some pretty wide temp swings also. What barrel lengths are you running?

    Rifle Scopes Swfa 5-20x50 help

    My ss 5-20 turret doesn't always line up perfect either but it isn't enough to bother me. If you loosen the cap and turn it .1 or. 2 mil in either direction it may line up. Either way you should bring it over for a comparison.

    7mm-08 and Berger classic 168's

    Thanks Sporter, every little bit helps. I agree about H1000 and 4831 being a little slow but if someone has tried either one I would love info as I have quite a bit of both. Varget has been my go-to powder for 7mm-08 and 308. I load 7mm-08 with Varget/162 Amax's and get around 2750 fps in a 21"...

    7mm-08 and Berger classic 168's

    Has anyone worked on loads for 7mm-08 using 168 berger classic hunters. I am interested in Hodgdon powders, specifically H1000, H4831, Varget, and H4350. Please include bbl length, charge wt, COAL, and velocity if possible. Any first hand info would be greatly appreciated.

    EH1 or EH4 stock for light weight LR hunter.

    EH1 Vs EH4 I have a Remington 7mm-08 with EH1 and M5 DBM. I started building it last spring with the goal of creating a short, lightish, medium range rifle that could double as target/steel ringer. I was able to keep the whole package at just over 10lbs with a loaded 5 rd mag. I really love...

    Hunting & Fishing hypothetical what caliber for 1,000 yd groundhog?

    Re: hypothetical what caliber for 1,000 yd groundhog? A .243 with a 105gr a-max would be good for groundhogs and as far as optics, maybe a Sightron SIII 6-24X50 LRMOA.

    Hunting & Fishing 2 year chase is over-- taxidermy pics

    Re: 2 year chase is over I used to hunt on the Eglin AFB range and in Blackwater naational forest and can say that Florida is a difficult place to score on a nice buck. I have seen a few but never connected with anything decent. Good job and way to stick it out. That mount looks great.
