Deer season opens Saturday and I guess I'm as ready as I can get.
I've got 145 Grn Speer (HotCor) Spire Points loaded on top of 48.0 Grns IMR 4350 and my Rem 700 Mtn LSS 7MM-08 is shooting them like a champ!
Here are 100 Yd (0.688") & 200 Yd (1.318") groups. Dark lines = 1/2", light lines = 1/4"


You don't hear a lot about Speers being very accurate (in fact you don't here much about Speer at all), but the 145 Grn Speer SP's are very accurate in my gun. Never shot these on game before, so I sure hope the on game performance is up to par with their accuracy!
At any rate, there is no room excuses if I miss!

I am not familiar with green points by speer but all I use is speer 150 grs lead tip hot cors and they are great!!!
and I can group under 3/4" at 100 yards with a Model 7 Rem in 308 18 1/2" barrel with 44grs 4064.
