7/08 will stop a bear
You just need to use the right bullets
I killed my grizzly last year with a 6.5x284
Ecklund killed his with a 6.5 prc
A do it all rifle is a rifle of compromise
If you shooting a big bullet out of a ultra light
It’s not going to be very friendly to shoot

Personally, if your looking at an ultra light rifle for sheep hunting
I would look at the Weatherby backcountry 2.0 in a 6.5 rpm

Just like what mountainti bought

It’s a step up from the prc and not quite at the hyper velocities of the 26 nosler and 6.5x300

I bought a 110 ultra light for my nephew
It’s alright but it’s just a savage with a proof barrel
