Any 7mm-08 shooters running heavy for caliber bullets? 160 gr Accubond with Reloader 17 shoots the best out of mine out of all the bullet powder combos I tried. Plan on using this for Deer and Black Bear.
 
Should work just fine. One of my 7mm’s is a 284 Win, so I normally top out at 140 grains. Longer/heavier would work, but the 284 case has a shorter neck. I load less often for my 7mm-08.

The last black bear I shot was DRT with the 284. It was a 20 yard neck shot.
 
Yes loaded 160 game kings and 175 smks in my daughters rifle. Ended up with H100V for the 175s to get the most velocity out of it. also installed a wyatts extended mag, Remington 700. 175s kill better than the 160s lots of bang flops form 50 to 350 yards on mule deer and antelope. She likes banging steel to. Kind of cool watching a 14 year old girl ringing the steel at 1000 yards.
RL-17 works good with the 160s
