[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 420986, member: 5219"] You can determine how much recoil is your limit by using this calculator: [url=http://www.handloads.com/calc/recoil.asp]Recoil Calculator[/url] If a heavy 300 win mag beats you up you most likely won't like a lightweight 7 Dakota. There are a few other considerations: Brass availability and cost bolt face has to be opened up to a non standard size (larger than magnum) Special reamer Special dies This baby is gonna be expensive for performance that is similar to the 7 STW. If a 7 STW fits and feeds from your '06 it might be less expensive to build. Quite frankly I would make a 7 rem mag as a lightweight western rifle. FYI I have two. [/QUOTE]
