[QUOTE="BoomFlop, post: 1651684, member: 55851"] I have hunted with a 7mm-08 before they we “popular”, since probably the mid to late 90’s. Got it when I was 16 I believe. Anyway, back then I shot the Hornady Light Magnum 139 gr SP and it did amazing on our whitetails. Pretty much everything dropped with behind shoulder shots under 200 yards. They no longer make that and I have tried contacting Hornady to see what bullet it was with no luck. It expanded awesome with large exits and great penetration. The Hornady Whitetail and Remington CoreLok don’t seem to expand much but penetrate well. My Rem LTR/Swarovski combo shot so dang good, I got it’s sibling in 308 Win to try and see if the .30 cal bullet does better ... and because I wanted it. LOL. No experience with the 308 Win so still trying to decide on what factory ammo options to try. Thanks all, Steve [/QUOTE]
