[QUOTE="HokieMattDude, post: 162490, member: 8972"] Hmm, never really considered Savage before. A couple other people have mentioned that to me. Remington 700 is like a staple in my family going back to my grandfather, we have a natural bias against anything else :D I do reload, which is what makes the 7mm-08 a tempting round over the .308. I'm still in a toss up over the two--I almost feel illegitimate not having a .308 since it's such a classic. I've never really considered a 260 or a 243 though, wouldn't the smaller bullet weights make it more sensitive to wind conditions? It's pretty windy on the ridge we shoot at, all times of the year. Thanks for the thoughts guys. [/QUOTE]
