So I've seen the ballistic data on the 7-08 cartridge, but have recently been wondering about trying a 7-06 in the future instead of 300WM. It would use less powder have less recoil and use some good high BC projectiles in both match and hunting loads.

I can't recall ever hearing of anyone else running it though. Based on 7-08 data it should reach out passed 1500yds pretty easily for target shooting and be plenty good for hunting.

This thread is basically a little research as this will probably be something done a ways down the road if I ever make up my mind on a future build and cartridge.

Let me know if anyone as experience with this one.

Thanks,

LW
