Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Is the 7-08 not better than the 260 remington ?

Both are really neat cartridges and could serve most hunters needs without issue.

I do think that rifles chambered in .260 Rem bring more on the resale market. There just aren't as many of them around.

One aspect of both the .260 and 7-08(add 7 Mauser), much like the 25-06 and .257, is the lack of recoil and how easy they are to shoot. This sure helps one get comfortable with a rifle, and there's nothing quite like the confidence instilled while carrying a comfort gun.
