I'd also like something for an elk or moose hunt that I'm saving up for in a couple of years. I'm considering .30-06, 7mm mag, .300 WSM, and .300wm. I'm also planning on getting started on reloading soon, and so I thought the combination of a 7mm-08 and 7mm mag would let me use the same bullets for both, or atleast try the same for both.
I would rather have a 308 and 30-06 combination myself. If you are set on the 7mm combo I would go for the 7-08 and 280. I am not a fan of magnums myself, aside from the 44remmag. A reloader can do wonders with the 30-06.
