sherman Report post Posted November 17, 2023 I just got a tikka t3x and was wondering what bullet people are using in 7mm08. I typically use hornandy sst but thought I would ask. TIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Couesdeer Report post Posted November 17, 2023 I have loaded 120 gr nosler ballistic tips over a generous dose of Varget in 5 different 7-08s. They are have all been accurate and deadly on multiple deer, javelina, and cow elk. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRDATR Report post Posted November 17, 2023 I'd go 140 TSX for deer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coueser4 Report post Posted November 17, 2023 I like the 139gr Barnes LRX. Performs well from Elk on down. Always shot well for me in my tikka. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazymonkey Report post Posted November 17, 2023 Barns 120 or 140 ttsx and staball6.5 for powder is a deadly combo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss50 Report post Posted November 19, 2023 My son's 7mm08 is shooting 150gr Hornady ELDX pretty well. Fairly easy to find and pricing isn't bad. I like them better than SST personally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My son's and my daughter's 7-08s both shoot 5 different powder charges with Barnes 140gr TTSX. One prefers IMR 4064 and the other prefers IMR4895 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
