7mmMag
New Member
Hello everyone! I have been lurking on this site for a few weeks trying to gather as much information as I can before I made my first post. I am a newcomer to the sport of Long Range Hunting/Shooting and I have some newbie questions. First, I currently own a Remington Model 700 7mm Mag and was wondering if this was an adequate rifle to start with. From what I have been reading on this forum, it does not seem as though this caliber is very popular for longe range hunting. Is this a fair statement? My rifle is 100% factory, but I would like to have some work done to it. Any suggestions would be great. I did a search on this forum for information on 7mm Mags and did not seem to come up with much. Maybe I did the search wrong! I am hoping you all tell me I can work with this caliber as I would prefer not to have to buy another rifle just yet.
I will be reloading my own rounds, but I will not ask any questions just yet as I have not done a search on that topic yet. I am sure there is plenty of information out there that will answer most of my questions.
Just for your information, this rifle will not be just for punching paper. It will be my deer hunting gun as well. I just wanted to let y'all know in case that had any bearing on modifications you would recommend.
Well, I look forward to hearing from y'all. Thanks in advance for your help and I hope to talk to you often!
