RE: 7mm-08 or 7mm Short Action Ultra Mag
You will not be disappointed with the 7mm-08. I have one (it's a Browning A-Bolt), and it is by far my favorite rifle. I like it better than my 30-06. It's such a great deer cartridge, and with the right loads and a good shot, it will do the trick for bigger game too. My vote is for the 7mm-08. I had a 300 ultra mag and a 300 short action ultra mag...sold them both after about 6 months, and I am glad I did.
