got a pound of StaBall 6.5 for my 708

Looking forward to your results, as both the wife and I have 7mm-08's, and I am using 140 AB's in mine. She has a good load with Sierra Pro Hunters.
 
I think you’ll like it. It is very accurate and consistent in my 270 Win. The burn chart shows it between 4350 and the 4831’s. This is most likely just my rifle, but the burn rate is almost identical To IMR 4831in that 270. I stopped before I ever got any pressure signs with Staball and 56gr of Staball gives me 3130 fps with 130gr BT’s. 57 grains of IMR 4831 gives me 3148 fps. You’ll have to figure out where it fits in with your 08’s but in My 270 Win it’s like a ball 4831. Maybe a smidge faster.

Worked up a load of Staball using the 120 BT in my 7mm08 which I sold to a good friend the other day. He is pleased with the groups and is looking forward to deer season. Staball also groups well in my 270 Win as Joe said plus 6.5x55 and 30-06. I like it. Dan.
