Give me a 270 or 280...
I haven't said anything in this thread, I don't have a dog in the fight, so to speak.
Back in the early 80s I was hunting with a bud who bought 1 shortly after they came out. The rifle and cartridge were fine, especially since we were hunting woods/thickets. I had a 77 UL in 308.
I HAD - HAD - 270s since the mid 70s so the 7-08 didn't attract a lot of interest in me.
I'm up on the assets of the 7-08 and I don't hate it.....
I still have 270s & 7 Mags so.....
Short actions and a little less recoil mean nothing to me.
If it floats your boat....fine with me.
