Source (s): Federal Cartridge Co. ballistics page, 175gr. The 7mm-08 Remington is a rifle cartridge that is almost a direct copy of a wildcat cartridge developed around 1958 known as the 7mm/308. As these names would suggest, it is the .308 Winchester case necked down to accept 7 mm (.284) bullets with a small increase in case length.

[2] The 788 utilizes a single-column detachable magazine holding 3 rounds ...
When the dust settled, the 6.5-08 would be called the .260 Remington instead of 6.5–08 A-Square. The 6.5-08 cartridge was created simply by necking down the .308 Winchester.

The .280 Remington is capable of developing energy nearly equal to the .30-06 Springfield, but with lighter bullets having a better ballistic coefficient. The .30-06 produces more energy than the .280 with bullets heavier than 180 grains, though .284" 175-grain bullets have a high sectional density of .310, compared to the 30-06 180-grain ...
