The rifle is coming with two loads like the .17 HMR, so it will be ethical for everything from as small as fox to as large as elk.

Maybe i missed some official post or stream, but is this information officially confirmed? if comes with both loads like the .17 would be great, but the last thing i read on the matter was that devs were still thinking about pick one or the other.

From Nov 14 status update..."The 7mm-08 round, would be completely new in game and have a different ethical species list, compared to the 7mm. The list is not finalised yet, but if it is the winning calibre, it will either have a light grain round and be ethical from Fox to Red Deer (maybe Rocky Mountain Elk, but not Roosevelt, due to the size difference). Or if it has a heavier grain bullet, it would be ethical from Coyote to Elk"

From Nov 28 status update..."Well the voting has ended and with over twice as many votes as any other calibre, the new rifle is going to be chambered in 7mm-08!
We have some more news as well, this rifle will be released with two different ammo loads and you can expect a wider ethical list."

Oh Hang On... Its not a 243 ?
It's dual ammo, DTMB, it will support both the .243 and the 7mm-08 ammo! Beauty of a solution! I say they give it to you too!!! ;)
Sorry, not both .243 and 7mm-08 Dan, but two 7mm-08 cartridges, one heavier bullet, one lighter. So at least a wider range of permitted species than only one type of ammo.

Finally the curse is lifted!
With all these redraws, I've been checking this thread every single day, hoping for my name to pop up. And it really has not been good for my stress level. No luck this time, but at least it's over now :D

Aww, that's a shame. But new items = new bugs I guess :P
But regardless, congratulations on the shiny new rifle!
