I have a bunch of 120gr. TTSXs loaded for the 7-08. I killed 2 deer and a big hog with it last year. Either deer took a step and the big hog went about 60yds. All complete pass throughs. Great velocity and excellent groups with that bullet. I decided early last fall that I wanted to try the 140gr Accubonds for our annual axis trip. I loaded some up and was extremely pleased with the velocity and very excellent groups out of the POS Tikka as Goatkiller thinks they are. 6 clicks of elevation from the 120s to the 140s was all that was needed for my 200yd zero. I’ve killed 2 axis, a decent size boar hog and 2 whitetail with the Accubonds. They all ran after the shot. The 10pt I killed this season went the farthest. Maybe 60yds. However Ronnie Milsap could’ve followed the blood trails of all of them. The Accubonds do way more damage than the TTSXs. I’ll hunt anything that I hunt with either one. My buddy shoots the Norma Whitetail 150gr. Never had an issue with his 7-08.
N2 has just about convinced me to try the 120gr BTs. But I need to shoot what I have loaded now.

It's hard to kiss the lips at night that chews your a$$ all day long.
