[QUOTE="Stgraves260, post: 1699544, member: 19988"] 7-08 7-08 20” Krieger barrel 140 grain Berger about 2700 FPS. 850 yard deer rifle. Heavy barrel (Remington Sendero size just 6” shorter ) had one built for my pop. He loves it. Light weight easy for him to handle and crazy accurate. I suggest get a 1-8 twist do to the loss of FPS because of the short barrel. That’s what we did. He shots 168 grain bullets sometimes and he still handles it just fine. My pop is 72 years young. Oh we had it threaded for a break/suppressor also. He just don’t use them. Also the 308 will be about 50 FPS fast that the 7-08 but you need to thank hard because you will give up over 100 BCs.
