James... Yup... My 7mm08 is NOTICEABLY milder to shoot than my .280 or several .270s that I have shot...Very pleasant.

I've killed a number of deer with 140 BTs at around 2800 fps MV.. I'm sure your rifle will work well with your load, considering the accuracy you are getting...

I'll be looking forward to comparing notes with you when you load up your 120 Barnes TSX...I'l be hunting deer with that bullet this year for the firet time...
