[QUOTE="gillettehunter, post: 802302, member: 25760"] I love shooting the 7mm-08. It has such light recoil. It's not got extremely high velocity so the advice above is likely pretty good. I have only shot one animal with an accubond. It was a whitetail at 100 yards w/ a 25-06. It whistled right through and didn't expand like I had hoped. A berger with the lower velocity will open up a lot better. I killed my sheep last year with a 6.5-06 at about 100 yards. Bullet opened up nicely. Went diagonally through him and ended up under the skin on the far side. Try a softer bullet in the 08. I think you'll like it. Bruce [/QUOTE]
