| 0:00.0 | What's up everybody? We have 10 minutes here with esteemed colleague Mr. Fantastic Ryan Muck and Hearn to talk about a cartridge naturally and this one I hope I'm not going to start one of those Texans wisdom things over here, but I'm going to say it is the 7 08, |
| 0:16.2 | aka 7 MM 08 or 7 millimeter 08, 7M. 8, I don't know. |
| 0:22.1 | I'll take them all. So this is a cartridge that has been widely requested from a lot of our listeners out there and in on |
| 0:29.9 | Instagram YouTube comments so keep those suggestions and requests coming and we know there's a lot more out there that we'll get to. |
| 0:37.4 | But okay, talk about these 7.08, right? |

| 1:08.3 | and it does afford the shooter a few things. |
| 1:12.8 | Probably get away with a little bit less recoil |
| 1:14.4 | because we're generally pushing a lighter weight bullet |
| 1:17.1 | but we're pushing a bullet of higher BC. |
| 1:19.4 | So we actually have a little bit of an improvement |
| 1:21.6 | on the downrange trajectory when compared to its parent |
| 1:25.1 | cartridge to 308. |
