Re: Who's running 7/08
I've found barrels to be hit or miss on the 162s, so don't pin your hopes and dreams on them. The 168 Bergers and 175smk are both excellent.
While the 175 @ ~2600 certainly isn't as flat as the 162@2775 (2775 is my experience with 26" BBL), it drifts less and is supersonic to ~1400+ yards. Very easily tuned, too.
7-08 is awesome.
7 Creedmoor and 7SLR are other cartridges to look at, as well.
