Interesting vanguard. I've had 6 7-08's and never had an issue getting great accuracy with a variety of powders and bullets. That cartridge is really hard to beat.
OP, those accubonds should work great. Good luck.

like i said you all make things more difficult than they are. theres not a lick of difference in a solid or a cup and core in a cleaning regiment or handloading. overpressure ? pffft till you have to bang a bolt open with a 2x4 you aint expierenced over pressure , youd have to use pistol powder to blow up a modern bolt gun For the safety of this forum I hope this post can be deleted. Many of us remember the +++p 22 Hornet. By all means reload as you wish but please quit giving advice or opinions.

I just know every time I have loaded Barnes all copper they are a pain to clean all the copper from the barrel so I avoid them.
"Anyone taking up handloading necessarily plays with unknown factors and takes chances. But so does anyone who drives a car,goes to a cocktail party,eats in a restaurant,or gets married."

its common knowledge that copper bullets have a higher pressure when loaded to the same specs as a traditional lead bullet. Loading manuals suggest backing off a max load when using copper bullets.
And I've never heard of a 7mm-08 being an inaccurate round. quite the contrary as a matter of fact.
I would question the rifles they are chambered in before the cartridge itself
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.
