Ok so i'm getting ready to order a 7mm-08 or 308 NULA. I prefer a .308 as for the larger bullets in case i do Elk etc down the road. But, are the barrels so thin that Melvin prefers smaller calibers? Also what paint color do you guys recommend. Really can't find where are the different choices are on his website. Trying to get a feel for what i want before i call him.

thanks,
