I don't have a 7mm-08 but I own a .308 and have shot the same brand of ammunition, Very reliable and good reloadable brass. If the price is good you will be happy with the ammo IMO.

I've shot a lot of that brand of ammo but not that particular caliber. I haven't had any issues with it.

I am like the others, never used that particular caliber but had good luck with the brand.

It's Serbian. I have shot it in 25/06 and 7x57. I would rate it about like Federal hi-shok or the cheap Winchester stuff. Not great but not bad either. It shot dirty for me was a downside, but no chambering, ejection, etc problems. I wouldn't buy it for a hunt of a lifetime but for stockpile ammo it would be ok.
Your mileage may vary.

Plans are for stockpile ammo. Buying a little each month.

I've had good luck with their ammo, .223, 30-30, .308, 30-06. I like their brass for reloading to.

I've shot quite a few different calibers of it, all of it was good ammo. Like said above the brass is good for reloading too. Was the most popular brand of ammo at the gun shop I worked at by far. I like it way better than the current production Remington Core-Lokt ammo which seems to have really declines in quality.

Ive read mostly good reviews on the 7-08 version of this ammo. Thanks for all the replies. Im about to place an order for at least 200 rounds.

I generally shoot Winchester Supreme ballistic silver tip thru my Remington
Model 7, but those are hard to find when you need them. Ive acquired a few boxes of the Silver Tips but want more ammo for this rifle.

From what ive read this Serbian ammo in 7-08 will work ok on these 125 pound deer down here. Did see where there were some variation from box to box sometimes and has been some issues with case sizing consistency, but over all good reviews.

I may buy 400 rounds.

I have burned trough a bunch of that ammo. It has been reliable and pretty clean. Anyone farted around with reloading the brass? I have mostly 308 cases.

Shot it in 300blk. Cheap and fine for plinking at paper. I wouldn't shoot steel with it. I wouldn't use it for anything other than plinking. I was able to retrieve some of the bullets after shooting them. I'll put up some pics here in a few minutes.
