Tell Tyler good luck for me, I`ll be in St Louis, that time of year again 600 yd Nationals.

I hope he knows how lucky a kid he is for him to have you as Dad, awesome.

Little too warm for me Lade. Max in my 7-08 is 3,020 with a 120...

140's net around 2,850.

Good luck to Tyler.

Shot a nice little 2.2" group with mine yesterday @ 400 yards.

Took 4.25 moa to get there from a 200 yd zero.

Not in Tim's realm, but good for me and a hunting rifle.

DA, that'll knock em for a loop for sure. I'm gonna look up where 760 is on the burn rate chart, I thought it was too fast for the 140 grainers and that is an admirable FPS. Good Luck this coming weekend, I'll be afield with my twins-280 and an 06 smack full of IMR4350 behind 140 and 150 Accubonds. Momma wants some venison and my dehydrator is ready to go to work.

i try to refrain from listing powder charges due to the fact some one will blow them self up

hndy list 139 gn bullet 40.1 to 48.9 ( 2900 +) with 24 inch bbl

sierra 140 37.9 to 47.4 2900 fps 26 inc bbl

speer 145 list max 49 with mag primer 2920 24 ich bbl



my load is 49 with mag primer worked up

it is hot i assure u

i loaded it 3 years ago to hunt out east tn but never had a chance to try it on deer

i have killed a few 3270 ish with the 7 saum and 140 partition

so at a touch over 3 g will be nice

 

[Model70Man]

That's a hot load for sure. I hope he drops a nice 150" 10 pt on his first day out this year.

 

[Deer Assassin]

with his luck it will be no problem

we are trying to get him his first doe

5 bucks later here we are

 

[EastTNHunter]

That is hotter than my .270 140gr loads

 

[Deer Assassin]

That is hotter than my .270 140gr loads

my ole 270 i pushed 140 hndy btsp any where from 3050 to 3150 re 19 was a lil temp sensitive

3150 memphis heat 90 + 3050 nd fall 20 degrees

i guess it the drag racing in me squeezing out a lil extra

in the 7/08 i have always loaded it normal never felt the need to hot rod it but apparently 3 years ago i had a moment to put a lil pepper on the fast ball
