I am considering getting a Remington Model 7 SS. I am trying to decide on either the .260 or 7-08. I'm looking for some input (especially from anybody who has shot both). I'm wondering if the recoil from a 7-08 would be substantial in such a light rifle. It primary purpose will be deer and varmints nothing over 200 yds). I know the 7-08 has an extremely wide selection of bullet styles and weights. Do any other manufacturer's (besides Rem.) plan to make cartridges or chamber rifles for the .260? How does .260 recoil compare to .243? Any of ya'll taken deer with the .260? Thanks for any help.
