[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 735744, member: 30902"] The 7mm mag is a great weapon but in all honesty at 1,000yds it's a turd compared to the 300wm. If you want to choose between a 7mm and the 300wm go to the 7mm STW. It is a laser beam to 1,000yds and with a 26" or longer barrel" it will beat the 7mm mag by about 250fps at long ranges which is a huge difference in energy. Using the heavy weight bullets with the high BC's it's a monster and can be very manageable recoil wise, about on par really with the 300wm. Get something like a Sendero Profile good brake, maybe a mercury recoil reducer or two and a good Limbsaver butt pad and neither one will be a problem at all. I had my little nieces shooting my 7m STW sitting in my lap when they were under 80lbs and they giggled and squealed like litter girls with the best toys ever ringing the gong at 300yds plus.
