I have never tried shooting one for precision, but I stand by the fact that they are great mid range guns. They are capable of more, and easy to shoot for new shooters. .308 carries many of the same capabilities, the 7-08 is just a little flatter and wins the BC game on similar weight bullets.
*disclaimer* I have also never hunted with a .308.
