Question for you Butch. Which should shoot better at 1000 yards? 7mm, smaller bullet, better bc, faster speed, effected less by wind. I understand there are better calibers for 1000 yards. Just asking on paper which should shoot better between the two. I don't have a ballistic calculator to run the numbers. The reason more people shoot .308 is because it has a specific class, doesn't mean it shoots better.
