I know this has been discussed recently but I could not find it just now. Im needing some reduced load data for a 7mm-08 shooting 120gr bullets for my young son to hunt deer with this year. Thanks

30 grains of IMR 4198, RL 7, RL 10, H 322, IMR 3031
25 grains of SR 4759 or IMR 4227

MV will vary between 2250 fps and 2400 fps depending on powder choice.. and barrel length..

Thanks Seafire, that's just what I was needing.

I have used SR 4759 in a 308 (same parent case), great results!

Glad to help out.. good luck to your young shooter..

Just got through loading up and shooting 30gr of RE7 behind a 120gr NBT. Adjusted sights and then put 3 shots into about an inch @100 through the little model 7. Then let my boy shoot. He loved it, put him up 2 horse apples at 100 yards and he drilled em both. Youth hunt coming up next weekend, Ill post you some pics of the results....hopefully!


Thanks again Seafire

Glad to help out..best of luck to your son and you on your deer hunt..

best regards
