Nice.

I would have gone .270 or 30-06, but I'm old fashioned that way.

I prefer the short actions. A 7mm-08 will knock down anything in this state. Ammo is not as readily available as a .308 but I can find it. If I ever want to hunt elk I'll go with a 150gr. Deer can be had here from 50 to 100 yards away. Now if I ever needed to go out to 300 yards then yeah a 30-06 or even a 300 win mag would be the right choice.
