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.

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.

You may want to do a little research before you spout off your "wisdom".

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
