I reload and have had good results accuracy-wise with both 145 grain Speer Grand Slams and Speer Boat Tails. Although the Boat Tails are a bit more accurate, I understand that the Grand Slams is a tougher bullet. Since I hunt deer, hogs and elk, I will probably go with the Grand Slams. There are a host of powders that work well in the 7mm-08 which makes load development interesting.


Start young, hunt hard, and enjoy God's bounty.
