[QUOTE="shade mt, post: 612797, member: 18680"] having shot the various super mags and love them all. I will say with the proper bullet the 7mag will kill elk as far as anyone has any business killing one. Shooting paper or steel at 600 + yards is one thing..if you miss or your calculations off a bit..you adjust and shoot again..but with an animal ethics come into play. If your off a bit in your calculation for wind ect...it could very well mean a wounded animal..regardless of cal, energy and velocity are way down bullet expansion is not nearly so violent as closer ranges...wound channels less severe ect..WITH ALL CALIBERS !!...bullet placement is the key...not a bigger cal...if you really want big go .50 CAL....all joking aside a step up to the 300 mags or even a 338 cal...is worthless without proper bullet placement...and if you put the bullet where its supposed to be....well then i guess the 7mag would have worked after all..
