[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1286867, member: 2736"] [b]Re: Most accurate, smoothest cycling, short, deer cartridge[/b] I also own a specialty pistol in 7/08 that is one of the most accurate weapons I own and it has a 16.2" barrel. I have taken deer beyond 500 yards with it using 150 grain Ballistic tips and they were DRT. The first 7/08 I owned was a Model 7 Remington with a 18.5" barrel that never let me down. I can't count the number of deer, hogs and other game it has taken without a single loss. I prefer a 20" barrel to get the most from the 7/08 and a 22" barrel for the 7/08x40. Like the 308, the 7/08 performs well in short barrels. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
