Would you like a list of names and addresses? Two very good friends of mine shoot their exclusivly. And I can think of at least a good twenty more, off the top of my head. I'm one of them. When you think about it, it's performance is between a .308 and an 06. If a premium bullet were offered, it would still be a great all around cartridge. As for the 7mm-08, my uncle uses his on everything up to and including moose. He has never had a problem, and has never had a need to shoot anything larger.
