Just posted on this subject recently. Of all the common hunting rifle cartridges I’ve chronographed over the past 40+ years, the 7mm-08 generally shows the least velocity loss with shorter bbls.
Personally I prefer 22” bbls because seems to me to be the sweet spot for less perceived muzzle blast vs lighter weight and portability.
Yup...22” inch is a nice place to be for a 7-08...IMO

Very nice rifle Beaver.
Mine is just a plain jane Tikka:
It works great. I have a 6.5 superlite and a 308win, but I always grab the 7 for some reason..??
