hornady light magnums SP for deer

I bought some hornady light magnum 139GR SP's today for my new Kimber 7mm-08. So, now I have the following ammo to try out to see what it likes usinf Chuck Hawks method. I have 140 grain Federal Vital shok nosler partitions, Remington Corlokt 140 Gr and the hornady's. I hesitated when I saw the accubonds.....expensive as well as maybe too much for deer....no?????
The hornady's list the muzzle velocity of 3,000 FPS the hottest of all these, or any factory loads I have found

Hunting Tip: Organize Your Rifle Cleaning Supplies

So what does your rifle cleaning kit look like? Is it a mess of bore brushes, different solvents and oils? Here may be the answer for you. I’m not going to recommend on how to clean your rifle or shotgun since you should already know that but suggest a way for you to keep all your supplies organized and where you can find them without getting four or five different boxes out to get everything together.
