I started with a cheapo 7mm-08 ruger american. Never did catch on to it and had problems with the magazines from day one. Tried a few different mags, with the same abysmal results. Got rid of it after 2 years.
Then I found a 7mm-08 kimber Adirondack a few years ago for the wife, that the kids also use.
Small, light with a short barrel. Shooting 150 ELD-X for the likes of moose, and other smaller game.
Has worked out great, and taken game with no issues, and it shoots great out to 550 yards. Max I've taken it so far.
