    At that powder charge i don't think you will lose as many fps as normal, its possible that with a different powder/charge weight you could keep that velocity

    I will be honest and say i have very little experience with a 145g in a 7mm08, - I have tried/used every other projectile though.
    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time
