[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 276763, member: 2736"] I prefer short heavy barrels for the 7/08 or 308 case and a 20" # 6 or 7 taper is all of that. They handle well and are very forgiving and extremely accurate. With 160 or 168 gr bullets you may need a 22" barrel to get the most out of the 7/08 or 7/08x40 . The 20" heavy barreled 7/08 is one of my favorite rifles for deer and hogs in fact the first one I built was for running boar competition and it was great .we shot 300 and 500yrds at a target moving 35 mph from left to right and right to left on the return trip. It traveled 100yrds each way and you tried to get as many hits as possible for score. You will love the short rifle for hunting and for running shots it cant be beat. If it sounds like I like the little 7/08 your right !!! J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
