I have Varget, H4350, IMR 4350, Imr4064, Benchmark, CFE223, Stabil6.5 powders

Wish I had some BG but will have to order some

I'm my Rem 700 7mm/08 with 23" bbl, I use 140gn Nosler Accubonds and 57gns RL17 for a 10 shot average of 2865fps. 48gns of H4350 gives me 2818fps with the same bullet. With a 139gn Hornady BTSP and 47gns PowerPro 2000-MR I get 2917fps. Given a choice, cost and availability, I think H4350 is a good all round performer.

According to Alliant 46gr RL17 is max for a 145 grain bullet.
I think you meant you're using 47grain of RL17 not 57?

Hey, you're right, it should be 47gns of RL17. It would be awfully hard to get 57gns of RL17 in a 7mm/08 case.
