Dependng on bolt lift, case expansion , etc. you may be able to get a little more out of it, but let's face it- it's a 708 not a 280 , 280AI or 7 mag!
400 yards is a fair poke for the average hunter and a 708 no matter what some books , gun writers or internet experts say
If the load is accurate I wouldn't fuss with it......

Exactly.

But once you got a load developed that is amazingly accurate farting around with future load development would be fun too!
