Too big now? How big is that ? I shoot a remington model 7 in 7mm - 08, and it is probably my favorite gun. I also have a browning a - bolt medallion in .270, I have a NEF .243 single shot, and I have a Ruger M77 stainless / synthetic in .308, and a remington model 7400 carbine in 30.06. So with all that to choose from , why do I choose the rem. model 7, in 7mm-08? Because it is a great calibur, in a small easy to handle and point gun, that moves around easily in a tree stand or box stand.

And I am a 42 year old full grown man. And I have not out grown it. I have only grown to appreciate what makes a gun great.

And the 7mm-08 is one of the best rounds going. Flat shooting to 300+ yards, and has very managible recoil.

So there is my opinion. Good luck and good hunting.
