[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1119389, member: 2736"] lots of good comparisons and discussions but in my opinion, the 7/08 is a great cartridge in its class. To compare it to another cartridge like a magnum is not a good comparison because they fill a totally different need/nitch. There is no free ride, because more powder and speed gets more recoil and less barrel life. If I could only own 1 rifle it would probably be a 300 rum or one of the 338s. But for a task specific rifle, the choice would be different in most cases because of the need and combined advantages of that cartridge in a specific use. There will always be something more powerful or have better ballistics, But at what cost? To answer the OPs original question, The 7/08 is a great cartridge in its class with minimum recoil and great barrel life and is also very, very accurate. So what more could you ask for in a cartridge of its size. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
