If I could only have one caliber rifle it would be the 7mm-08.
Very nice caliber and ive owned several chambered in it.
It just seems the caliber does alot of really good things, fills a great role, but nobody wants one? Too many of them out there? 6.5 Creedmoor the flavor of the week?
No makey no sense to me, can someone help out?
There are a lot of them out there being used. They just dont get all the hype the newer stuff gets.
Gun manufacturers have to constantly be coming up with something different to sell new guns. If they didnt we would all probably do like our grandfathers and great grandfathers who just owned one or two calibers their whole lives. Someone forgot to tell them that they needed the latest and greatest caliber out to kill something.
The 7mm-08 is a gun you could buy for a pre teen and use factory off shelf low recoil rounds, and then step to the regular stuff and use the rest of their lives.
Just as the 6.5 is being praised as the best round ever, but the 260 rem which is almost perfectly identical and been around for years is overlooked. Its all in the marketing.
