    What is a good dual purpose load for hunting deer and elk. I've never loaded any 7mm-08. The nearest caliber that I own is a 7x57 Mauser. What is your experience with the 7mm-08?

    bperdue21,

    It sticks in my mind that when I loaded these for a friend a few years ago. I used 40 grs. of 4895 which gave good velocity in lighter bullets. and 42-3(can't recall really well) of 4064 which he said did great on accuracy. Those are with the 140's. I really recommend cross-referencing as this was a few years ago I did this. I didn't get to see how the 4064 actually did for accuracy just what he told me.
    I'm thinking though that since this case likes slower powders I would work in the 4350, 4831, VV N160-5 N560 powders.

    We have the second amendment so that all the rest are secure....UNK>
