Thanks all... it was a good season, just shorter than I wanted as always.

bearstalker, Yes, I'm loading them to mag length. The 84L mag is not terribly friendly to sleek bullets, but the overall package is good enough to make up for that IMO. I'm shooting 62 grains of RL22 in Nosler/Norma AI brass with moly.

Will be interested to hear your results.

Just FYI....

One of the few Amax's I've caught. 30cal 178gr., Mule deer 409 yards. Quartering to, impact through onside shoulder blade and then traveled through the spine for approximately 16-18 inches of spine.

I bet this bullet would be perfect for a 7-08 and would find out I could ever find some.

Several people on here would say that you are correct. The 162 at 2700 flies very, very well. I plan to try them in 7-08 in the next year or two. It is time for my to begin to move my fun into various 7's for a while.
