I own a rem. model 7 in 7mm-08 , and it has probably become my most favorite rifle. I have 6 different rifles from .243 to 30.06 and the light weight , compact package, reliability, and accuracy have made it a joy to hunt with. I can only believe, since I also have a .308 in a different rifle, that a .308 in that model rifle would be just as good if not better. The .308 is a great round. You can't go wrong with a model 7.
