Loaded up properly and in a longer action (Mauser or 30-06) it is quite effective....
at least in my humble opinion. So are its wildcats.

The 7-08 is one fine round also. Punches over its weight.

Well, if it isn’t put in a short action, it doesn’t seem like a great idea at all. In a long action, I’d rather have a the 06 length case.


Don't speculate when you don't know, and don't second guess when you do.
