What a mess of a thread! Well, I will pick neither the .308 or the 7mm-08 as any of my hunting rigs. I tried the 7mm-08 once with my daughter in a featherweight model 70 Winchester but to much muzzle jump and muzzle blast to suit her needs.

I just don't seem to fathom the this or that some put on the .308 or 7mm-08, the 30-06 is much more to my liking period. It will drive bigger bullets down range for the biggest of animals. You drop in a 130 grain bullet and go hunt antelope afar if you like, with plenty of velocity and flat trajectory to make those .270 folks sit up and notice.
