Default RE: heaviest bullet for a 7mm-08

I haven't tried the "heavy weights" (>154Grn) in my 7mm-08. Haven't really seen the need to.

However, both of my 7mm-08's, a REM 700 Mtn LSS and a Rem 7600, shoot the 154 Grn Hornady RN extremely well. I handload and both rifles like the 154 over H414. This is my "Woods" load.

Note: Targets @100 Yds except for bottom right which is at 200Yds. Dark squares 1/2", lighter squares 1/4"


The Mtn LSS likes the 145 Speer HotCor over IMR 4350. Haven't worked up this load for the 7600 yet but definetely intend to.
