RE: 7mm - 08
I don't know anything about the Ruger MKII's as I've never owned or even shot one, but I've got a Rem 700 Mtn LSS and a Rem 7600 both in 7mm-08.
Love the 7mm-08!! It's very easy on the shoulder which makes it a pleasure to practice with at the range. There is a good selection of factory fodder available and if you reload there are a lot of 7mm bullets to choose from. Although I've only shot whitetails with the Mtn LSS (just got the 7600 & havent shot it yet), folks say the 7mm-08 is good for up to Elk and I've got a dandy (spelled very accurate) coyote load worked up using 100 Grn Sierr HP's.
Great round in my opinion!
