7mm/08 Load

[GaCop]

Following load shot extremely well in my Savage 110 with 22" factory barrel. Action is glass bedded and barrel fully floated.

RP brass, CCI BR-2 primer, Nosler 120 grain Ballistic Tip seated .012" off the lands, Varget powder/42.5 grains. Chronographed MV is 2957 fps. Five shot group at 100 yards measured .863". For safety I recommend working up to this charge.

Very nice. I am currently working on loads for my 7mm-08. First out will be W760 with a magnum primer, 140 gr. Partition with Win. brass.

It that does not work, will be trying Varget, then 3031.

Do you know what powder the Fusion ammo uses? I have a Blaser 7mm-08 that I just bought last week, amazing accuracy with both Remington and Fusion ammo 140 Gr, trying to decide what powder to reload to get same results.
