[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 769960, member: 11717"] I hunted with a 7 RM many years and killed a lot of critters with it. It's a fine cartridge. That said it is no where near a 300 RUM. I've shot both. Your 7 mag can push 180's with a G7 BC of .345 @ 3060 fps and a 300 RUM can push 215's with a G7 BC of .356 @ 3100 fps. The RUM is pushing a heavier bullet with a higher BC at a greater velocity. In other words, it is leaving the 7mm bullet behind in all categories. Flatness, TOF, Windage, and Energy. Not a slam on the 7mm, just putting things in perspective. [/QUOTE]
