Who is going to shoot a 80 or 100 grain bullet out of a 7mm-08 for hunting?
I think the OP would be best served by a .308 but the 7mm-08 is a far better hunting round than a .243 from my experience with both cartridges. On paper the 243 is outclassed in every category except Muzzle Velocity, but the crap BC makes it not as good downrange- which is not what either one of these rifles are designed for.
