What are the relative merits and shortcomings of these three calibers.
I have heard that 8mm Mauser has a lot of recoil, and that .303 British isn't much different. So what about 7mm Mauser, it doesn't seem so common as the 8mm fodder, is it more shootable or is it only chambered in older guns.
I'm thinking of getting into a Milsurp, and I would ideally like a softer shooting round in a gun that has a safe, solid, action.
Thanks for any advice.
