He is using a featherweight, you have a sporter barrel...


Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!

Even with a fwt barrel it is extremely close with BC flip-ups and lows....Is that better? whistle...How about a fwt 308, would that make you feel better? FN production 308 fwt with leupold DD lows, bushnel elite 3200 3-9x40 scope:

Sporter, not sporter, EW, magnum...whatever. It's not a fwt as the original poster asked about.

I already did. The original poster, a new guy on the site, asked if HIS components would work. A couple of us answered that.

As far as a pissing contest with you over your chosen minutiae and posting pics of components that have nothing to do with the original question, I hope you have better things to do than that. I certainly do.
