I use it in my 7-08. It really wakes it up and I found it super easy to find a load for it.

2850 fps with 140 grain Partitions and Accubonds from a 20โ€ barrel.

I tried it in my model 70 extreme weather 7mm-08 with 140 and 120 grain bullets and it did ok. I probably could have played around with it more and got it dialed in but at the time I was testing I just didnt have the time and found a good load with IMR4064 and 120 grain sierra pro hunters so I settled on that and was very happy with the accuracy and performance on deer this past season. When it comes to 270 I found that with 130 grain bullets which is what I shoot it is hard to beat 54-55 grains of IMR4350.

I wish I could find some Big Game powder.

I've had good velocity and performance from Big Game in 243 and from TAC in 6.5 Grendel. I hate the mess with loading ball powders though.

I got a good bit of powder and I would swap for a jug of Big Game.
If your in North AL and got some to swap message me with what your looking for.
