Bibleman,

How/what do you mean ?

"......there is little difference between the '06 and the 270."

7mm-08 is the perfect whitetail medication !!!!

At 300+ yards which would be more accurate between the 7mm-08 & 308 win???

All things being equal they should be the same.

The 7mm bullets have a slight ballistic advantage.Operative word being slight.For all practical purposes you'll never notice the difference but I still prefer the 7mm.

My son has a Remington Model 7 in a 7mm-08 with a Leupold scope. Shot at 5 deer and killed all 5. All five dropped in their tracks. Great rifle.
