my 08 likes those accubonds too....but im force feeding it 162 eldx bullets....seems to like them as well.

my favorite caliber is the .284....in any cartridge....280 ackley,or not....maybe just the lowely little 280....I love the 7mm08.....love the 7 mag.....stw….now if they would only make the 7mm creedmore….WHY IS THERE NO 7MM CREEDMORE?

yeah....well wait until the creedmore comes in 170 grain....it will put the minute man to shame...

I have a buddy that has kill a brazillion elk with his .270...my father in law also loves that gun...I bought him a buffalo shoot one year, he came down with that gun. I asked him if he wanted to use my 7 mag he said no....so he shot that buffalo and the thing took three steps and just...

yep...I did. I am going to need high quality 7 mag brass....and better dies and what not... what I am trying to do is get my s.d. and e.s. in the low single digits... I am starting with the 243 then going on to the 7mm08 and then the 7 mag. today I got my lapua brass and bergers for the 243...

yeah...I like nosler brass....have shot a bunch through my 708....it is pretty good...

ya know im going to have to try that stuff out....****...it is spendy.

no...I have plenty of brass...im just educating myself to whats out there....and I noticed that the premier brass manufacturers either dont make it or dont have any for sale...kinda weird...it is one popular round.
