Nosler 7mm 120 gr BT

[dra1911]

Realize every rifle is different. I'm reloading for a Win M70 in 7mm-08. Typical factory throat that goes on forever. Because of magazine size I'm jumping the Nosler 7mm 120 gr Ballistic Tips 0.030" to be able mag feed. Accuracy is about 3/4 " to 1" at a hundred yards using H4895. Plenty good enough for minute of deer. So what is the typical distance this bullet likes to jump?

Try 2.808" COAL, with 43.-46. grains of Varget.

Thanks guys. Will try the Varget at 2.850" and 2.808" COAL. I could use any advice for the Barnes 120 gr & 140 gr TTSX. I know they like lots of jump. Not many powders listed in their manual.
