[QUOTE="Remi, post: 5855982, member: 21887"] What barrel length? Both 22" 708's will reach 2700fps with a 150 but the best accuracy is slightly under. I shoot the 150 scenar at 2688fps I believe. The 708 is one of the most hot rodded cartridges there is I think. Everyone gets a 708 and tries to make it a 280 Rem. Mine are the happiest here with 22" barrels 140's around 2800 150's around 2700 160-162 around 2600 For deer I've dropped back to the 120-140 class bullets. I used the 140 Accubond on one last year and it did fine but it's not as emphatic as I would have liked so it will be a ballistic tip, Hornady PSP or Speer this year. Granted I didn't catch any shoulder bone with the Accubond which would have helped but I think they're a bit hard for deer at those speeds. [/QUOTE]
