7mm08 30-06 308 are no where near the rifle your looking for to make long shots> really long shots 500 yards plus with. Especially on the game size animals you intend to hunt. If you do purchase one of the three for that extended yardage? Get new battery's for your flashlight. Your going to spend allot of time in the field looking for your wounded animal. I hope others would agree with me on this one.
P.Script: the 7mm is 28 caliber. Not much difference between a 30-caliber 308 and the 7mm 08 other than the cost of shells required for the 7mm-08.>Spendy!!< Good Luck Sir, SSMcG

Like the .308 the 7mm08 is very capable of longer range shots if the shooter is. Statements like this show little understanding of the cartridge, its versatility, balistics and lethality in the right hands. How many people, animals and targets have died at 500-1000yds as a result of the trigger sqeeze on a .308, the 7mm08 is better IMO. It would have probably taken the nation by storm if they'd have named it the .284 SA Express or .284-08.
I'm a fan. The groups are shrinking the more I shoot it.
