The .308 is an excellent choice. Tops in my book.

I agree,if you really like the tikka look @ the hunter it's the same gun with a wood stock.Much nicer IMO.
I started a simular thread a few weeks back{7mm-08 all around cartridge}After thinking about it , doing a little more reseach about it I'm gonna go with the 308 mainly because of ammo availiblity and the cost of ammo.
