    Any 7/08 shooters on the hide??

    Re: Any 7/08 shooters on the hide?? I have tried all the primers in 7/08 and .308 and nothing seems to work better as far as ES than FGMM with RL 15. BR 2's do the best with Varget. But I think that is consistant with most people here.

    Re: What powder is in stock and is good for .223? How about AA 2230 works great for me with several Bullet weights, also AA 2520 for the heavy bullets. Chris

    Re: Any 7/08 shooters on the hide?? OK, the 41 grs. of RL-15 and the 162 Amax was a bit strange. Win. Brass neck size only BR2 primers seated 2.95 The group was .75 at 100yds. but the ES was 60 ???? maybe the BR2 does not get a long with RL-15. 2580 to 2640. temp was 70 degrees. Anybody...

    Re: Any 7/08 shooters on the hide?? Looked at my log and H414 and IMR 4064 were top performers with either 140 Nos, 150 SMK, 168 SMK. Varget being the worst. Just loaded up 162 A-Max with 41 Varget with BR2's Win. brass to try this weekend. I don't want to give up on Varget yet. Best groups...
