7mm-08 reloading info.....please..................

[Rackseeker]

I was wondering if anyone would share their load data for their 7mm-08. I've got a Browning micro hunter A-bolt that I'll be loading for. I was thinking about using the hornady 139 sst bullet. If anyone has had good luck with a different bullet on whitetail, I'd like to know what bullet and powder charge. Thanks for any info.......

Heres my 2 favorites.
This is this best in my Tikka - Varget @43.5grs,140gr Sierra Game King . My oal on these are 2.800" and a Win lr primer.

This is a real close 2nd - Win. 748 @ 42.9 grs, with 140 gr Sierra GK same OAL and Primer

This was a good 3rd place load.- Win [email protected] gr,Hornady 154 gr. oal 2.805"

And this is what I shoot out of my 7mm08 varmint rig.
AA2495br@42 gr,Hornady 120 gr oal 2.810"

Out of my A-Bolt-

I use 43 gr Varget and a 140 NAB or NBT.

I load to Browning's clip length.

If i still had a 7mm/08 I`d shoot 44 grains RL15 and the 120 Ballistic Tip.

Back when I reloaded I would use 41.5 gr Accurate Arms Powder #2520 130 gr Spitzer point Boattail bullet by Speer. I did a lot of experimenting with powder charges to find the best grouping. As best I recall, I started at 39 gr & went up .5 gr until I got to 44 gr. I had the best groups with 41.5. Good Luck to ya!

Forgot to add. I was using Browning Micro-Medallion 7mm-08.
