    Take off the stock of the A7 and have a look,
    The early ones had no reinforcing around the front swivel area.

    There have been stock failures using a bipod because of that.

    Stay away from it if its the earlier model and ask for the newer stock design.

    7mm-08 or .270, the deer won't know the difference.
    Both have lots of factory ammo types and makes available.
    .270 will have like 0.5 lbs more felt recoil.

    Its not a Tikka T3 in 7mm08, so its all good.
