So far in my Tikka, this is looking like a pretty good long range solution.
I've tried it over RL-17, H4350, IMR4350 and H4895. Best groups have been with a moderate charge of RL-17 (2610 fps) and a stiff charge of H4350 (2675 fps), both giving me 0.60" at 100 yards.
If you believe the listed BC on this bullet, 2675 MV will still have over 2K fps at 500 yards, delivering nearly 1500 ft. lbs. of energy.
That's pretty darn impressive from a 7mm-08.
