I will start with Fed 210m and see how they go.
Yep the 7-08ai barrel has been recut and retested then retired to lean against the back wall of the safe. I have heaps of brass for it so one day might have another go at it.

Hi Footsore, sorry to hear about your 7.08ai barrel, they are touchy little devil's. I just feel they are suited to 168 gr bullets and the 300m to 500m range, after that I feel they stress a lot,

I never reached my target speed with the 2217, i ran out of case in my 280AI for 2217, and only reaches 2920fps.
I was using BR2 large primers and a very limited trial with Federal 210m.
I am using 2213sc and have no issues reaching my target of 2960 fps and found quite a wide powder node with quite nice grouping, even out at 1000yds.
2209 was giving pressure signs from about 2890+ fps.
