| I am working up a RL17+150 Nosler BT load for my 7x57 and it seems to work quite well. Since I couldn't find any published info I started from scratch. My rifle has a very long throat (old Ruger #1) so my data may not apply but the 7-08 is very close in capacity to the 7x57.

| Alliant says to just consult 4350 loads.. guess 4350 has just a tad faster burn rate..
RL 17 lies between 4350 and 4831 in burn rates, according to Aliant tech line. |

| My 7/08 with 140 grain Accubonds prefers 40 grains of Reloader 15. Just makes a ragged hole at 100 yards. |
