You can literally take this rifle combo out of the box and head to the range for about $380.

    Now, if you are considering doing something other than deer hunt, while the 7mm-08 will kill an elk, many prefer the .308 as a more versatile/available big game cartridge. My next rifle will be a 7mm-08.
