Howdy folks. I have an oppertunity to trade into a Remington Mountain rifle in 7-08. I'm thinking I'll likely go ahead and do the deal. Anyone here have any experiance with such an animal? Thnks!
All depends on what you are going to be hunting and how. What are you wanting it for ? It's a great general round for deer sized animals.

I've been looking into a rifle that is on 7-08! Not sure if I want one though.
Dave, no disrespect meant but the 7mm-08 is also a darn good elk round. IME the .270 loaded with a 150 Partition at 2850fps is no better than a 7mm-08 loaded with a 140gr Partition at 2850fps. Thousands drop elk every year with 140's and 130's outa a 270. And if you load up a 7mm-08 with 120gr TSX at 3000fps not only will it out penetrate most 270 loads with 130 and 140 gr bullets it will also punch a bigger hole, retain more weight and use less powder. Awesome cartridge not limited to deer at all.
