Am planning an African plains game safari for this summer. What do people recommend for the best bullets to use in a 7mm-08 caliber rifle? Nosler 140 AB, Hornady 139 GMX? Barnes TTSX 120 gr?
If I was taking a 7mm-08 to Africa I would look at the 140 gr TTSX. Their on-line info shows 4-5 powders that will get this bullet over 2900 FPS. That will do a great job on most of the plains game animals. Under rated caliber. Light recoil and easy to shoot. When/where you going? What animals on your list. Good luck. By the way welcome to AH.

Best 3 shot group from benchrest at 100 yards: 1/4 inch. That was a good day. You would choose the GMX over the Accubond?If your rifle shoots it well use the 139 grain GMX superformance load.
