I love my Model 7 7mm 08!! I can't shoot a 30.06 at all. I flinch. Could probably eliminate that with a bit more practice with it, but I'm comfortable as all get out with the 7mm 08 and in recent years the 308 so why put myself out. 7mm 08 packs enough punch for deer and bear without any trouble and I'd rather put a 7mm08 bullet where I aim than a 30.0 bullet 4 inches from where I was aimin.
