Looking to get one of my 7mm-08's rechambered to the AI round, just because.
What kind of speeds are you guys getting with 120 and 140 grain bullets? I'm guessing '15 or '17 is the way to fly?
For fireforming, I'm guessing virgin brass, a kiss, and a max SAAMI load?
Plan to run the 120 grain TSX/TTSX and BT's mostly, but will likely try some 140 grain Partitions and Accubonds I have on hand. Given those selections, which would you send in with the dummy round and what kind of COAL would you go with? Not really planning to go with the A-Max in this rifle, got another 7mm-08 that's going to be a dedicated A-Max rifle in the future.
Guess I should mention the rifle. It's a SUCKS SA 24" factory sporter bbl'd action dropped in a Ti takeoff. Plan to cut/crown at 22 inches for now and go from there.
