[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 142880, member: 3733"] I can't say if you got a good deal, don't know the condition of your trade gun. I have picked up a few used 700LA this winter one syn. 7mm $260 used, and one syn.30-06 new $360. Seen an older 700bdl at a store for $264 and regret not buying it. Bought for there actions. Both the 7-08 and 308 could be accurate for 600 yard shooting. I would be a little cautious about taking shots at elk over 500 yards with those 2 cartriges. It could be done with the right bullet and perfect shot placement. If you need more range move up to a short mag. The 7-08 should kill elk fine. I shot two with a 280 rem last fall with 140 AB under 150 yards. If hit right they will drop on the spot. The 308 is a proven cartige very capable of taking elk. A 308 palma match is basically the same as a 308 win. reamer dimensions are a little different to acomidate the 155 palma bullet, and camber may be on the smaller side of sammi. [/QUOTE]
