At one time your .270 and 7mm Mag were that new cutting edge….I just don't know how I've been able to kill countless animals with just a plain old .270 and a 7mm Mag over the last 45+ years.
It seems everything nowadays must be taken with whatever the latest and greatest caliber out there.
What is your take on the new 7mm Backcountry?

I can assure you, anyone that assumes the handle "Gr8bawana" isn't going to understand this, especially given he's misspelled Bwana..

I mean, what was wrong with the good 'ol aught-six and seven Mauser after all?
(only halfway kidding. I mean, those two can still cover 95% of our uses!)

What is the extra pressure going to do to the suppressor on the end of a short barrel? Quite a few are already limited to some extent on barrel length with magnum cartridges. Might be kind of like threading a 22 rimfire can on a .223.

I’m not even that old and I believe that the 7mm08 is a misunderstood and under utilized cartridge. Everyone needs I’ve ever shoot was fantastic and never let my wife down.
