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

Hawk1,

There a a lot of calibers I have not and probably never will shoot a game animal with. However, that doesn't mean I don't know what to expect if I did. An example would be the .338Fed. Since I acquired one I have shot two deer with it. It preformed pretty much like I expected for what I wanted it to do. Never shot a deer with a .270W, but I know what to expect, from groundhogs to elk. Never used a .300Sav., no big deal, I know what it will do and pretty much what I would use it on, what bullets to use for what and the range I would be comfortable using it. Never shot a deer with a .224cal, but have seen what others have done with it and how they did it. Not all that hard to come to solid conclusions if one pays attention to what is going on around. The "have you used it" comments posted by many doesn't mean all that much, at least to me.
