I got into shooting later than many; I was in my mid thirties. But you could have opted for the 7x57 Mauser (... or maybe the 6.5 Swede)!Ha! Ha! Ha! There you go, Legionaire - you've gone and made me feel old! My first hunting rifle would have been a 7mm-08 instead of a .308 too, except for the fact I started big game hunting and killed my first deer in 1963 - about 17 years before the 7mm-08 was commercialized.
I agree with you though.
