I'll have to get back to you with specifics, but the contours are the same (#1, I believe) and the 7-08 shoots 120 gr Barnes TTSX at ~one half inch at 100 yds and the 7x57 shoots 140 gr Barnes TTSX at ~one half inch at 100 yds, both handloads.

The 7x57 is built on Melvin's Model #28 action and the 7-08 is his #20 action. The only problem I have is choosing which one to take out. They are close weightwise, but the Kahles is a little heavier than the Leupold.
