Why don’t you surprise us all and say something productive and intelligent?

As much as I would appreciate continuing this battle of wits, you're clearly unarmed and it's late. May the remainder of your evening be as pleasant as you are.

Personally, wouldn`t see a problem with either chambering. IMHO the fun is in the work up of loads and the shooting involved before I go hunting. I`ve got some 7x57 stuff loaded that I want to chrony, also with the 162 ELDM`s. So Mags arn`t exclusive for anything out to 600 yrds. I`m sure there are a few 7x08 guys that would agree.

I believe that much of your answer can be derived from the photo above with the line up of cartridges. All appear to have the same bullet so we can then see how deep into the case the bullet is seated to meet the desired length.
If my esimate is correct these are 7-08, ?, 7 SAUM, 284, 7 WSM, 280, 280AI, 7RM, 7STW. I observe the overall length available in the 7RM and presume this is due to the longer action and magazine box of the Rem 700 action. On both of my 7 Rem mags the 700 can be loaded to longer length, COAL, than my Mauser Mk X. My Rem 700 also outshoots my Mauser with the same load. I haven't tried to modify the load for the Mauser as this is really just a back up.
If my viewpoint is correct the 7 RM can be loaded more efficiently for a higher speed with a 180g bullet. There is also a later photo in this sequence of the short mag cases and the bullet I presume to be the 180.
Me, I hunt mostly with a 280, Rem 700, fixed 4x Burris Supreme that will put several different loads into about 1/2 inch.

On a 700 .532" Donor,that is certainly the case. Pun be intended. For All Around Utility,I MUCH prefer the 7-08. It's never not ALL about Trigger Time. Hint................

Hint................ yes i own 4 - 7mm-08 all great rifles too ,i just like the power of a 7 mag a little better. and to be honest the 7mm-08 with less recoil is much more fun to practice with and does shoot very well a long ways out.

What bullets are you shooting,in regards to both chamberings?
"Power" is a Wives Tale and misconception.

That's akin to someone giving you AIDS...as the "gift" assuredly is not. Hint.
Box that schit up,give it the fhuqk away and see the light if only for the first time.
A 21" 7-08 will absolutely fhuqking CRUSH your 7mm Rem mag squirting 160 NPT's.
Hint.
Talk "power" now too.
Hint.................(grin)

I run a 280AI and it does fine out to the ranges you want and likely farther . I feed it 162 ELDX’s atop of full charges of 19, 22 or 26. Shoots them all equally welll. I went 280AI because I was sitting on a 30-‘06 donar and about 800 ct of 06 brass. So, it made sense for me. I may give 175ELDX’s a try but the 162’s do all I want or need. If I were to start from scratch I would likely do a 7RM properly throated,twisted and with a magazine box set up to run 180 grain class bullets. The 7RM case to me is about ideal case capacity for 160-180 grain 7mm bullets. The AI is almost but not quite. It will do for me for now though. JMO.
