Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles opinion of 7mm-08 rem. vs 308

Your entire premise that the 7mm-08 is somehow a "better" general purpose hunting cartridge than the .308 is false.

I, and others, have conceded the point that using one single bullet the 7-08 will provide a smidge more energy, and a smidge less drop, than the .308. At ranges that nobody hunts with 'em anyway.

What you can't do, and won't be able to do, is show how that smidge of "energy" (your term) makes one bit of difference. Start there. But you can't.
