7-08

Thanks for the info on the new gun for my younger son to start hunting. Picked up a 7-08 and it is great. I think I might look for an excuse to buy one for myself also. One heck of alot less kick than my 7mm mag. Thanks again for all the info.

Every thing you have belongs to your wife, if you don't believe me, ask a Lawyer!:)

RE: 7-08

I agree with Rebel Hog and my first wife can testify to that. Right wife now. How can you argue with a woman that gets up at 3 am to make breakfast before you head out, a great lunch went you're in the bush and a excellect meal when you get home. It's just hard to explain rifle #28. I was thinking..."Because the first one is lonely or if you want to get out hunting you can use it." But then again, if that happens then I might have to buy 3.

One does not need an excuse to buy a 7MM-08. Its a fine rifle that will take all but the most dangerous NA game while being a pure joy at the range. For those like me who want to enjoy a rifle that does not beat the shooter to death its about perfect.

I agree! It's an awsome caliber. As far as the wife thing goes I agree ther too, you married the wrong one. One thing my wife has never busted my hump over was guns and bows. Maybe I just got lucky!
