I have one in 7-08 with the 18" barrel. It shoots really well with a little load work up but it's hell on scopes. Time to do what I should have 2 scopes ago and just put a fixed 6 super chicken on it. It's killed 2 ss 3-9s. My latest load is 180g eldms at just over 2500 fps. It's half moa when the scope is holding.

Some say it's slow but I think it's a good place to be with a thin skinned bullet. If a fixed 6 holds and my health keeps improving I may take it to Africa next time and do some bullet testing on culls. My 21" 6 creed FC shoots very well too. Still regret not buying more when SAS was hooking us up with them.
