Had some pretty good groups wed at the range before it got too hot.
The 7/08 is an older model rem classic,it shoots about anything you put in it.Shot a one inch group at 300.The 120 hornady shot as good as the 120 gr HP.Been useing IMR 4350 but think I will switch to varget get faster speed and accuracy with it.
The 25/06 is a tikka that I bought a few months ago have had a hard time getting it to shoot but after rebedding and floating the barrel all the way back it does pretty good now shot 2 groups wed useing the 85 BT about the same size. Tried the r-25 and it shot good at 100 and 300.
The 270 is new only had it a few weeks,but it is going to be a shooter,working up a load for it with the 135 gr sierra same bullet I use in the 270 wsm.
These are all factory rifles ,trigger adjustment on all of them and the tikka bedded.

some decent shooting there. heres a pic of my latest 308 loads 100 yard grouping its 165 g. sierra BTHP gameking over 45 grains varget, fed primers and remington brass. for now im calling it good, I may tinker some more with it might try fed gold medal primers and I might try using a lee crimp. the rifle is an older (manufactured in 1988) remington mountain rifle.

Looks like a good solid hunting load.I have had 2 of the rem mtn rifles and both shot very well,one in 260 rem and one in 30/06,sold the 260 to buy it back in the 260 bdl with 24 in barrel and traded my 30/06 to a friend to make a custom rifle.I haven't got a 308 but have shot a lot of them,just posted under "GUNS new varmit rifle " about shooting a friends 308 tikka varmit,does that thing shoot.
Loaded up some 308 for one of my brothers 308 mossberg year before last and it shot very good too.
