7mm-08rem

anyone use bullets under 139gr's for whitetails in this caliber? shots could range from 40yds out to 300yds.

I am a big fan of the Barnes 120 grain TSX in my 7mm08....

With RL-15 my load averages about 3000 fps MV from the 22" barrel of my M700 mountain rifle.. Shoots essentially as flat as the .270/130 , is extremely accurate in my rifle and drops deer like lightning..

Another good choice in the 7mm08 is the Nosler 120 ballistic tip..

Hdy 120gr SPs are the lightest 7mm Ive used on deer....no complaints

120gr TSX w/RL15 is an awesome combo.

If the 139s shoot well out of your rifle they should do well for your needs. I would not hesitate to shoot a whitetail with my 7-08 at 300 yds using 139 gr Hornadys that it consistantly prints under 1" groups.
