[QUOTE="highridge1, post: 806507, member: 10327"] The 7mm mags are not in the same league as the 338's and they never will be.Delivering a 300 gr bullet to deer,elk bear etc at long range there is not a debate the .338 is better.Bigger bullet hole, alot more energy and less wind drift. If recoil is the discussion well I don't really know what to say there a 12 yr old kid can shoot a big 338 with a quality brake. The first time my teenage son shot my Edge at 1000 + yards he was consistently hitting rocks shooting 300 gr bullets. About the 300 Rum compared to the 7mm STW, WSM, Ultra etc with the 230 gr bergers running around 3100-3150 fps it flat smokes the 7mm's more energy, bigger hole, less wind drift, It not complicated it's just facts. When I see a debate between and 7mm and a 338 for long range I wonder how many guys on here actually go out and do this stuff or if they are just a key board commando.... [/QUOTE]
