I'll follow along since I just finished building a 7-08 myself in a fairly similar set-up. I'm currently working up some loads using Hornady 162gr ELD-Match... slightly lower weight & a bit higher bc. I'm trying out Varget also, as well as IMR4064 since I keep plenty of that on hand for other calibers. Wanted to try out some H4350, but I can't find it in stock anywhere...
Do keep in mind that max velocity/distance isn't always the best bet. I've found over many years that my most accurate rounds are usually in the 60%-80% of max load, and I'd rather give up a little bit of range for that ultimate precision, not to mention the little bit longer barrel life.
