[QUOTE="Brad615, post: 645868, member: 46747"] Well I was reading this & figured I would add my OPINION! I am just getting into the long range shooting game & I must say it's a absolute blast! (no pun intended) So for what it's worth I will say this, my 7mm rem mag will be more than enough gun to hunt most big game in North America up to 1000 yards. Now with me being new to the long range scene I am nowhere close to ready to attempt a shot at a deer or elk at 1000 yards. I would never attempt it because I respect the animal & the fair game of hunting responsibility to much. Now I did buy a 7mm rem mag for the following reasons: First of all I did my homework & asked several long range shooters I know, and everyone of them told me that the 7mm rem mag was more than enough gun WITH the rite bullet to take big game at 1000 yards, however they also did say the 300 win mag would deliver more WITH the rite bullet. My 7mm rem mag with a 180 grain berger is pushing 2800 fps + & at 1000 yards is delivering over 1000 ft lbs of energy. So the 7mm rem mag vs 300 win mag in my opinion the 300 win mag will deliver more, but the 7mm rem mag will do the trick, this of course means the guy or lady behind the trigger can deliver. I'm not there yet but I will not stop until I am! Also I would like to say I love this forum, for the most part I have found that most people on this forum are really trying to help out their fellow hunter/shooter.
