I recently drug a SC made M70 Fwt 7-08 out of the safe where it had been hidden for several years. It's a little on the temperamental side and I had been concentrating on my 250 Savages and 257 Roberts for a while, so it took a back seat. I had taken a few deer with the 120 BT and 139 Hornady flat base over Varget with good results when I first got it. After reading Pharmsellers results with Big Game and Mag primers I tried them with the 120s with good results, but then put it up.
I got to wondering about the 139 Horn load so I worked up to 47 gr Big Game with some old Wolf Magnum primers and after playing with seating depth a bit found a winner. Last two 3 shot groups were 3/4" and 7/8". Yes I know it's 3 shots, but that's good enough for this ol man.
Thinking about taking it along on an upcoming hog hunt.
