Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
Based on the 308 Winchester case necked down, the 7mm-08 Remington was an obvious and popular wildcat cartridge before its adoption by Remington in 1980. Performance is very similar to the 7x57 Mauser, except that the 7mm-08's 2.0457-inch case can be housed in short actions, and because it's a recent cartridge chambered to modern rifles 7mm-08 ammunition is loaded to higher pressure. The 7mm-08 has become extremely popular; like the 7x57 it is an ideal whitetail cartridge, and an excellent choice for hunters who want accuracy, efficiency, and versatility without a lot of recoil and muzzle blast. Both rifles and ammunition are offered by most manufacturers, with the most common load featuring a 140-grain bullet at 2860 fps. With this load and good bullets the 7mm-08 is adequate for elk, but is at its best for deer-sized game. — Craig Boddington
