[QUOTE="chickm1, post: 1521095, member: 49525"] Lightweight and light recoil. I don't know what you call light recoil, but the 30-06 has light recoil compared to the 7mmRUM. One thing to consider, is that some states use to require bullets of a certain size or larger. Colorado use to require .284 or larger, but I have no idea what they require now. I love the 7mm08, but not sure if it would punch through the other side of an elk, if it hit a major bone, or if you have to shoot at an angle. Exit wounds are what leaves the blood trail. [/QUOTE]
