Where have you read this?? Sounds dubious to me. No need for a magnum primer in a 7 08, even using Big Game powder. If they are using a LRM primer its probably because they mistakenly believe they need the LRM for consistent ignition of ball powders.
If you do try and LRM primer, make sure you reduce your loads.

If you do try and LRM primer, make sure you reduce your loads. I have read this several different places people posting what seems to work best for them. I've actually asked them why they do and they tell me that with big game powder it seems to ignite better with the magnum primer than with the large rifle primer due to the type powder it is. At realistic hunting situations tho they did tell me that I probably would never see any change in accuracy or performance. Another reason I would prefer to use the large primers is because I've got quite a bit more large rifle primers vs magnum primers which I'd like to save for my 7 mag.

I use a magnum primer in my BG 7-08 loads. I never tried LR primers in it.
I’ve used magnum primers in other cartridges where a LR primer was called for. I’ve never reduced my charge weight and have never had any issues with doing so.
83% of all statistics are made up.
