[QUOTE="Varminator 911, post: 231222, member: 9705"] I've got a 7mm08AI in a model 7, 8 1/2 lbs all up. Very accurate, very little recoil and I love it. Yours is just a little more of the same. The 140 BT has worked great for me on deer and Feral pigs. Some like the 120BT for deer. It might not be the best at 500 yds but inside 400 I'm sure it would kill like lighting. Someone was bragging about the 117 sierra GK in a 25-06 lately for deer. Find the right 120 in your RUSM, and it will be at least as good. But if you are stepping up to elk, I'd consider the 140 accubond as a minimum. The 150 Etip or 160 accubond should be at least as good. [/QUOTE]
