Sweet, they're not bad are they! I picked one up in 7mm08 with a 17" tube a month or two back, planning on reaming it to 284win. I threw a scope on last week and just loaded up a few rounds with 140BT's to see how it shoots, 1 gr under book max with 2209 and seated the pills to where they looked right, and went to the range, 3 thru one ragged hole at 100! Guessed the velocity, entered it into shooter then went back to 300 and 400, and dead centre hits on both! Too easy. Sending it off to get re-chambered in the morning. Have a dpt magnum can sitting here waiting for it. Cant wait to get it back.
