For what its worth, I reload the 7mm-08 but had bought a box of Hornady superformance 139 grain before I started and it kills deer with such authority I see no need to hunt with anything else. I use the reloads for fun shooting and target practice for the Grandson. Per the Box the FPS is 2940 which approaches 7mag territory. and after watching 2 deer die with one shot like it was the hammer of Thor I am a believer.
