I've been thinking I want an 7-08. Is 7-08 a good caliber for say Axis, Mule Deer and Aoudad?

Load that puppy up with some 140 Gr. Nosler Accubonds and you can whack just about anything you want!

Im really torn on this entire APR deal. Order for me or sons graduation (even though hes only a freshman). Then theres the caliber dilemma. Dont have a need for a magnum rifle really. More interested in a whitetail round from the pineywoods to south texas deer and maybe antelope. Reloading at pops is possible but not a deal breaker if I dont mess with it. Right now he loads for us but we dont go thru much ammo. Heck Ive had the same box of 25.06 for the TC for 4 or 5 years

I have several other calibers in production rifles, from .270 Win up to .375 H&H. I don't have anything between .264 and .22-250.
A 25 cal sure would fit nice in there
Sierracharlie out…
