I'll have to look into the 7mm-08, I'm not familiar with it. But if it is shooting a heavy bullet with light recoil (can't be lighter than a .270, can it?) that must mean low velocity, so I assume significant bullet drop and limited range, especially for new shooters.

I was eyeing the .270 for light recoil and flat trajectory, but the wife doesn't like the recoil. That led me to .243 for lighter recoil and availability. I believe it has a pretty flat trajectory as well, can't really remember at the moment.

Any experience with the Marlin SX7?
