[QUOTE="pyroducksx3, post: 488789, member: 20443"] I think something to note is that the 7 will pretty much do ballistically what the 300 will do with less recoil. This is because you get better B.C.s with lighter bullets, which equals less recoil. When you compare theses 2 calibers you have to balance what you need/want. The 7mm will recoil less and have a better ballistic arch but will arrive with less energy than the 30 cal. So you have to decide how much energy you wish to have and how much recoil you want to endure. I decided on a 7mm becasue I enjoying the shooting and its important to me. I prefer to run a 150/160 gr bullet than having a similiar BC bullet in the .30 cal at 200gr, plain and simple for me its recoil vs energy and I feel that the 7 has enough enegy (Ft lbs) using these weight bullets. The .30 has more but the 7 has enough. [/QUOTE]
