I am mainly a lever-gun guy, that’s just where I find most enjoyment when deer hunting.
However, I am on a quest of adding a 7mm to the herd. This will be mainly for white tails in the Mid-South. When I am able, I will build a 7mm SAUM or close equivalent for Western hunts.
I have a .270 Win, and it leaves nothing to be desired for accuracy or killing power. It does a boringly good job of smoking critters from as far as I can shoot.
So this isn’t about necessity (how boring) just looking for a short action 7mm.
Only stipulations are this: (1) no barrel burner, and (2) not interested in fire-forming. I guess the only real question is: within these criteria, is there anything that legitimately tops the 7mm-08?
