The 08 is referencing the parent case, the .308, necked down to accept at .284 diameter bullet versus the .308 caliber.

Other variations of the .308 case: .243 Win, .260 win

Does browning make a 7MM-08 Rifle If so show you a picture and specs?

Yes, I dont have a picture but yes they do. I myself am looking for a 7mm08 in browning but, Browning is not going to be making a blued/wood finish in an A bolt Hunter. In 2008 Browning will be coming out with the X-Bolt so you may have to wait until the 1st part of next year to get one, but you could get lucky and find one here and there. If you go to Browning.com you can see the pictures of 7mm08 in the X-Bolt. I will be getting one when it comes out. You may want to read up on the X-bolt sounds like it may be worth the wait. Hope this helped
