[QUOTE="CC268, post: 947628, member: 80195"] What is the 7mm STW? I have never heard of that. Please keep in mind at this point I would like to buy something that has ammo that is available over the counter. I have never seen 7mm STW in the stores, but always see 300 WM, 7mm Mag, 308, etc... Looks like there are a lot of advocates for the 7 Mag and 300 WM. [B]Quick Question: How is the recoil with the 300 WM? (assuming a gun that is 7lb +, but light enough to carry hunting)[/B] I have shot a 7 Mag, 300 Ultra Mag (one Remington 700 with a muzzle brake and the other a Remington Sendero with no muzzle brake, but of course it is a 8.5 lb rifle) and had no issue with recoil whatsoever. In fact the 300 UM Remington Sendero kicked less than my Tikka T3 Lite .243! I posted a similar thread over on another forum and got a lot of supporters for the .270 as well. The 7mm Mag and 300 WM seem to be the conclusion here though. [/QUOTE]
