Nice rig mate. I have 2 mod7's one with xlow rings the other low, just beware that if you have a larger head the xlow rings might be too low for the BnC stock, it definitely had a higher comb.

I can vouch for both 2208 and 140gr AB's (20" tube though). IMO 140gr BT's are a far better all rounder regardless of the range. You won't be pushing them that hard anyway, so their performance up...

For the price of a primer and a case, I throw them. Loosing a finger or an eye is not worth it. I believe a squirt of CRC in the primer will render it dead, so if you have to de-prime a live one,...

I only tried 2213 with the 150 ELD X and just couldn't get the speed I think there was plenty of case space. I also tried R19 speed was OK but high pressure again then tried R22 with good speed and...
