I'm looking to build a sub 400 yd load for elk with sub 100 yds often encountered where i hunt. I've got a Howa Alpine 7mm08 20" bbl. Which would you guys go with?
...
I guess I'm worried about velocity from such a short barrel.
ES, I have the same Alpine rig and loaded up H4350 and 140 grain E-Tips as I had a couple hundred on hand.
