Few different neck specs for the various 284w reamer too from memory, for a hunting rifle pays to go for the roomier one to avoid issues. Have a search on here - was a good thread awhile back.

I'm a fan of heavy for caliber in the 7mm08. Run a 20" with 162gr ELD-M. Original load with 2208 was only doing 2530fps but was a hammer of Thor on stags out to 400y. Have since moved to...
