Stevens 200 7mm-08 loads???
« on: January 31, 2010, 02:52:32 PM »
Has anybody had any luck with their hand loads for this combo? I've tried several different bullet weights and powder combo's with limited success. Everything from 120 grain hollow pont match to 162 grain A-MAX's.

Try a 140 grain bullet, Winchester primer, and a load of Varget about 1-2 grains below book max.   Per my recent study of 7mm-08 loads, this is where I will be starting my load development with this round.
