This has been a helpful thread thanks; I agree w/ Brad & JB’s assessment of this cartridge.

I just traded into a lovely Model 70 Classic Featherweight in 7-08 that is shooting 168 GR Nosler Custom Comps with WLRMs, LC90 brass, and 44 GR of RL17 or IMR4451 into little bug holes.

I have to admit the look of the loaded cartridges with COAL JUST able to run through the mag is a thing of beauty. Gonna have to try the 168 GR Berger Classic?
