[QUOTE="VTbluegrass, post: 2224823, member: 104786"] If the 7-08 is the current rifle switching to a reduced recoil/light weight bullet in the 308 is literally getting another rifle/barrel just for the sake of another rifle/barrel. Physics is like that, more power comes with more recoil. Sending the force elsewhere via a heavier gun, better recoil pad, or a brake are really the only solutions to the problem. If a 7mm-08 can't do it the 308 win is not likely gonna do it either. Elk and the similar sized African animals you mention won't know the difference for sure. Also another vote for putting a Hammer Bullet down range. [/QUOTE]
