Answer the Gun Writers
Below are statements made by famous gun writers in the magazines.
[*]The flat shooting 25-06 is the best for antelope hunting in opening country.
Answer: The 7mm-08 120 GR handloads shoot flatter than 120 GR 25-06 factory loads! With 120 GR 25-06 handloads, the 25-06 and 7mm-08 are ballistic twins!
[*]The 30-06 will handle all North American big game except for the large bears.
Answer: The 7mm-08 is flatter shooting with equal energy and 40% less recoil than the 30-06!
[*]The 270 Winchester is the best all-around rifle. For varmits, up to the largest deer species, the 270 can't be beat!
Answer: The 7mm-08 is the ballistic twin of the 270. The 7mm-08 has less recoil for varmit shooting, and will handle bigger bullets for the largest game. The 7mm-08 uses less powder and inherits the tack driving accuracy of the 308 Winchester.
[*]The 280 Remington might unseat the 270 Winchester as the best all-around hunting cartridge.
Answer: The 280 factory loads are made for older pump action and auto-loading rifles and fall far below the performance levels of the 7mm-08 handloads.

Was never sayin it wasn't a good round. Just doesn't have more power than the 308 or 30-06. Till 400 or 500yards as you pointed out, which doesn't mean a thing as it wouldn't be my choice for a longe range rifle.
actually it starts at 300.

it is the ballistic twin of the of the 270 and 280 with a little less recoil,all
While I like the 7mm-08 and have actually owned two myself,it is a little behind the 280 ballistically.
not enough were it would miss the animal,what is it about 2,3 inches different.

Different enough not to call them ballistic twins.

I ve checked all the factory loads in the 7mm-08 and have yet to see were it outshines the 270 and it doesn't have more knockdown power then 30-06. and I hope you dont think it out shoots a 25-06 cause it wont.

stubble Im trying to get my 300rum loads that good.getting close to a half now but not under a quarter inch yet

go to the remington ballistic,and i most deffenitly has more energy than than the 30-06 and shots just as flat as the 25-06,and stomps the 25-06 in energy.just read that all you have to do.its that easy....lol...im reading this on planet earth, i dont know were you are reading yours..lol...and see its just as good as these long actions,just deal with it,its the facts...lol
lets see a 25-06 shot a 140 grain bullet and compare, then it would really be way out in left field
and you need to go compare the 140 grain with the 270,not the 130,of course it going to be a little flatter,but i can hand load the 7mm-08 with 130 and 120 and outshine the 270. 130....if you want to do it that way..

And anyone can handload a 270 to outshine a 7mm-08. When you mentioned handloading you totally changed the game.

Since when has this thread been a pissing match between different cartridges?

i gues i can get his big brother the 7mag,and put most long action that were mention,to shame,but this little guy holds his own for a short action i must say,thats why i love it so much.and it has been i alot more 1000 yards matches over the past 5 years,and is doing quite well, its no slouch by no means ,anyway you look at it.
