Definition of a high maintenance cartridge, different spec, pressures, throating, actions etc. 7mm-08: clear, concise, efficient. 270 Win: beats both Arcus Venator

If the 7-08 and 7x57 are truly ballistic twins, and if a 7-08 can topple a ram at 500 yards, surely an adequately loaded 7x57 should be able to do the same. But it's really an academic question for me since most of my shots on game are less than 100 yards and even the equivalent of Remington's Managed Recoil loads are entirely adequate at that range.

DigitalDan Campfire Kahuna Joined: May 2004 Posts: 56,086 In the Swamps	Originally Posted by southtexas Originally Posted by DigitalDan Originally Posted by southtexas Why are you inserting LOGIC into the discussion? He isn't. The 7x57 has a case capacity of ~59.0 grains of water. The 7-08 has a case capacity of ~56.O grains of water. Like the fella said above, it's physics and platform. Yes, he was. The logic is, if you are going to have a long action, why not get a 280. Which has significantly more capacity. And physics is physics. But if you WANT a 7x57, logic is not important. It was a joke. Joking about the 7x57 is a sure path to smoking turds in hell. I am..........disturbed. Concerning the difference between man and the jackass: some observers hold that there isn't any. But this wrongs the jackass. -Twain

I'm going to head out to the lease this afternoon. Maybe I can get a geriatric hog to hobble up to one of the feeders so this AARP member can clobber him with an equally geriatric cartridge. Assuming, of course, that he doesn't move out of the way between the time I pull the trigger and the bullet actually arrives.
