..................Too many 7mm buffs out there. 7/08 gonna be around for a long time to come.

Good indicators to determine IF the 7/08 cartridge is on the down slide or not, would be to track all of the new factory rifles available in 7/08, available factory ammo and brass for the reloaders. If any one or any combo of those three were taking place then I might be concerned a little if a 7/08 owner or a wannabe 7/08 owner...
