Purchased a 7mm-08 (22" barrel, 1:9.5" twist) for my bride for her birthday. I've been searching far and wide for reasonably priced bullets, of the 139gr range, to make target/plinking rounds. I will load hunting loads for mule deer or elk with good quality 160gr bullets, but for her enjoyment of reduced recoil, fun shooting wanted to go with a lighter bullet for plinking purposes. RMR currently only has 160's, although I find the $.13/bullet acceptable. Is my thinking about the lighter bullet being that much of a difference of recoil off-base? Thanks ahead of time for any advice or sources for bullets. CCW
