[QUOTE="baldhunter, post: 703469, member: 11853"] If you want the most bang for your buck,the 7mag is the way to go.Uses less powder,very flat shooter,brass is cheap and easy to find,recoil is manageable,will shoot the same bullets as the other 7's,just a little less speed,but do you really need it?More rifles to pick from in the 7mag.I also have a 7STW.It does have a clear advantage over the 7mag.I'm getting around 200fps faster velocities with it in any of the bullet weights,but it cost me around ten more grains of powder to do it and a little more recoil,but still manageable.Brass is available,but it is sometimes unavailable or hard to find.It really depends on what your hunting and how far your shooting.If your hunting primarily elk size animals with heavier weight bullets at long distances,by all means,the bigger 7's are a better choice.But if you are hunting mostly deer sized game with lighter weight and mid sized bullets and most of your shots are usually 300yds or less,the Plain Jane 7mag will easily do the job.
