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

Mr. Stick,

As much as it pains me to agree with Jeff O,I think he is winning the substance of the arguement.

If you can get it done with a 7mm,you can get it done with a 30 at any given level.

I a real 7mm nut myself,I have 7mm-08s,7x57s,280s,a 280 AI,a 7mm Rem Mag,and 7mm Weatherby on a M700 action.

But at the end of the day,I can get anything any of them will do,done with a 270 or 30 caliber rifle.

Granted that I do not hunt with match bullets and do not shoot at game animals beyond 500 yards. If you throw either of these into the fray,then the bullet with the highest BC and the highest muzzle velocity will have the advantage.

In the real world of hunting animals at less than 500 yards with hunting bullets,most of the differences don't matter.
