I have mostly used W-W 760 in my Model 7. However,I have worked up loads with IMR-4350, 4064, and Varget that all work well with the 120 and 140 grain bulletsI shoot.

Thank You All for Your advice ! I start working up loads today. First loads with IMR 4350 and second batch with RL 15. Thanks again.

Id take a real good look at h-380 to. Its been my powder of choice in both the 7mm-08 and the 260 for years. Runs through the powder measure super consistant. And has produced outstanding accuracy.

Pop!

Fl Still Hunter,

I think you'll enjoy the 7mm 08. My daughter an I both had one and wrung them out pretty good. Several deer, an antelope and cow elk fell to them. I found the cartridge receptive to several different powders and bullets, but the best accuracy and velocity were achieved with H-Varget.
