With a 9.5 twist you should be able to shoot most bullets up to 175 grains. That's a standard twist so the only ones that may not stabilize would be high BC 175 grVLD bullets.
I personally wouldn't shoot anything over 150 gr in a 7 08. Too much velocity loss above that weight IMHO.

Always thought the Remington 120 was about perfect in the 7/08. Speed less recoil enough bullet weight. I reckon you could go 150/165 but I don't see any advantages. If you need150/175s go .280 or 7 mag.

I’ve had great results with 120 grain NBTs @3000fps and 140 grain Accubonds and Partitions @2850fps in my Remington Model Seven 7-08 with a 20” barrel.
83% of all statistics are made up.
