To keep things easy for my wife/kids I have three 7MM-08s that all shoot the same load. 140g accubond over Varget at near book max. Rather than tailor loads and switch between "deer" and "elk" loads, if a rifle won't shoot that within reasonable accuracy I send it down the road. The 140 AB seems to be a nice do-all combination. Plenty adequate for anything Montana has to offer within reasonable ranges IMO. Elk, deer, and antelope all made it into the freezer this year compliments of the 140 AB.
