[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 293640, member: 505"] I agree with all this is splitting hairs. But if I had to choose one rifle to hunt everything with, between the two it would be the 300 wsm. It can get tremendous velocity out of a shorter lighter barreld rifle. The 7mm rem mag needs barrel length adding weight. My 300 wsm has a 24 1/2" barrel and shoots a 150 grain nosler Etip with a .469 BC at 3419 fps and a 200 grain accubond at 2900 fps with a .588 or whatever BC. At short or long range I think this eclipses what a 7mm rem mag will do and it does it in a shorter, lighter rifle. Somebody look it up on your ballistics program and see what they look like side by side. It would be interesting. Will either one kill stuff? yes. [/QUOTE]
