does anyone have one or have shot one out to 1000 yds just wondering just seems to me like it would get there a lot easier than .308 and was thinking of rebarreling one of my ar10s to it
Re: ar 10 in 7mm-08
well i know they chamber them in 260rem and 6.5 creedmor but i always loved 7-08 and bullet selection is great just wondering why no one seems to build them

I have the 260 upper for mine, i can use all the 6.5 bullets and neck down 7-08 brass.

I like 7mm-08, and NOBODY is (still?) a self-proclaimed 7mm-08 slut...
I'd take one (if I had an AR-10).

probably because whatever a 7mm will do a 260 will do it better with less recoil. When I shoot the barrel out of my AR-10 its going to get a rebarrel to .260 remington...

Anything a 260 will do a 7mm will do better, just with a little more recoil.
The 7mm08 is one of my favourite cartridges. In fact, my scores have dropped since rebarreling to 6.5x47lapua. Don't know much about semi autos though
I am interested in the 7-08 you gave up.
Barrel length, bullet weight and powder weight would be great.
It was a standard Tikka Varmint. 9.5 twist. I used 168gn VLD hunting and 162 ELD match with 42gn of Varget.
It still grouped great after 4500 rounds, but rebarreled because it was starting to lose velocity.
