[QUOTE="WV Sendero, post: 493488, member: 29930"] I think you made the right choice by going with the 300 WM over the 7mm. I am not an experienced elk hunter by any means but of the two calibers you mentioned I would have went with the 300 too. May want to look at the 210 Bergers they have a good BC and enough weight to carry some good energy. You may still want a limit of a little less than 1,000yds though. For your original question about scopes, that is a pretty good deal on that Zeiss and they are great scopes. For $700 I think that one would be tough to beat. If you want to get $1000 or a little more look at the Mark 4 Leupold. I have the Zeiss 6.5-20x50 and the 8.5-25x50 Mark 4 and like them both very well. I don't think you could go wrong with either. As far as recoil if the gun has a brake on it then you will be fine. 300 WM isn't bad without a brake. [/QUOTE]
