I've been running a similar combination in my 7/08 for almost 10 years now. A sprinkle of 2208 with a 162gr Amax gives me 2640fps in a long action 20" T3. Probably on the warmer side, but hey....

I would have said 69.5-70.5 is where you look to have the most consistent grouping, if you overlaid targets from that charge range it looks like they would largely fall in same sort of places

Haven 't used them for brass, though that is a great suggestion. I've used them for projectiles, somewhere between 18,000 to 20,000 over 4 years. Great company to deal with. Had a shipment...
