7mm-08 Rem success on big game

[7IsAHolyNumber]

7mm-08 - 18” bbl length
150gr ELD-X
IMR8208 XBR
~2625fps

Have taken a few whitetail with this gun and combination with good results. I have found the bullet kills efficiently but doesn’t cause excessive damage to meat.

I need to get better about taking pictures of bullet performance on game but sharing what I do have.

I was considering cutting my 7mm-08 Kimber Montana to 18" and was wondering about the performance I might get with a 150 ELD-X. Thanks for this information .

No problem.

There was another node above the one i settled on but accuracy was a little less than this one. I didn’t have a good chrono then and I also don’t like loading to edge as I’ve seem to find that brass can get trashed pretty quick on a moist day when suppressed and lapua ain’t cheap these days.
