Yep, I'd like to have at least similar dope for the occasional 300 yd. field shots. I'm not really looking for a "brush gun" so-to-speak, but more of an all-around one. I'm just tired of the bolt, but don't want the weight, etc. of a semi-auto...and pumps and I definitely don't mix.
I should have added that I prefer lower recoil, if possible, so I think that sways me a bit more towards the 7mm-08.
