on paper it has the power of the .270 win with several pounds less recoil.
Shouldn't have a problem with the 700 spitting them out.


Ballistics on the 7mm-08 are just a tad shy of the .270 with less recoil, great gun, example a .243 with 100 grain is approx 11 ft lbs of recoil the 7mm-08 with a 140 gr is approx 12.5 ft lbs of recoil & .308 with 150 gr is approx 15 ft lbs of recoil. Something close to that, I used to have the recoil table, can't find it. If I remember right the .270 & 30-06 are around 19-21 ft lbs.
