[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 386021, member: 505"] Topshot, The 7mm rem mag is an excellent round and that is why it is so poular. I have never hunted Sambar so I am not a scource of info on that. I have seen many nice bull elk wounded and lost with the 7mm. The bullet must be good and the shot must be good. Just not much room for error like there would be with your big 338. Like everybody else says a well placed quality hunting bullet in the right spot and you can bring down anything. If you can get Barnes bullets down there that is what I would use because you can trust them every time. I shot elk about 35 years ago with a 7mm-300 wby and 175 grain sierra game kings. At slower velocities they held together. Of the ones you listed I would go with it or the accubond. I would be concerned the others would be way to fragile on an animal that size. [/QUOTE]
