    Although Nick personally would not go lighter than 150gn, I would. My favourite load was using the Berger 140gn VLD with RL 17. They were going at 3040 fps and were a bloody lethal load. I only stopped using that as I could not get hold of any more RL 17.
    Makes sense in a short action for sure. Damn good bullet that 140 vld. Killed a few things in the old 7mm08 with it
