For those using big game, are you using regular or mag primers? I would recommend WLR or WLRM for lowest velocity spread with Big Game in 7mm08; my primer test results below. 7mm08, Kimber, 22", 140 Sierra ProHunter, 2.800", Lapua brass, 47.5 grains Big Game, 65F
1 2 3 Average spread Primer
2,866 2,862 2,909 2,879 47 Rem9.5
2,858 2,875 2,888 2,874 30 Fed210M
2,871 2,878 2,864 2,871 14 WLR
2,833 2,839 2,869 2,847 36 CCI200
2,892 2,903 2,905 2,900 13 WLRM
2,856 2,857 2,879 2,864 23 CCI250
The first CCI200 was a slight hang fire.

Whatever shoots best. My 7-08 preferred H4350 over Big Game or Varget. Brad curious if you had any crony data, guessing that was your 22" Kimber? Temp? Thanks. I think the 150 BT is a gem in the 7/08......... I see Noz now makes the AB in the 150, should be a nice combo, though at these speeds on impact the 150 BT may be very similar on game. I may be the exception, but would likely prefer the AB to a PT. Hi 65, my load of 46.5 H4350/210M/Nosler Brass was 2,700fps on the nose. I agree with you on the NBT, it's really quite a bullet. The best loads I found in my last 7-08 with the 150 NBT (all 210M) were: 46.5 H4350 @ 2,700 42.0 Varget @ 2,717 45.0 RL17 @ 2,730 49.0 Hunter @ 2,745
