[QUOTE="gtk, post: 5604105, member: 795"] heck no, not at all. :) I appreciate the input. I don't get into the creedmore hate. Its a good round, and as I stated earlier, I dont beleive there is such thing as "too many guns". While at this place we hunt antelope at I could easily shoot as far as I can see, I personally wouldn't feel comfortable out past 400-450. My furthest shot i've made on game was 525, but that was on a big critter (elk). Lots of "ifs/ands/butts)" but I dont think I can go wrong with any of the 3 choices (as shown in all these comments/advice). Pro-7mm/08: Affordability and also Brass. My brother hunts elk with his 7mm-08 because he has eye problems (detached retina) and doctors advise him to refrain from any recoil if at all possible. With his 7mm-08, I could get all the brass I need. If I need more brass, I could just screw with his scope before season, and make him have to sight it in again (what are brothers for, right?) Pro-6mmPRC: flat shooting, backup elk gun, and just the fact not a lot of people have them :) Pro-6mmCM: brass/ammo availability, flat shooting, plenty of models to choose from. [/QUOTE]
