[QUOTE="wildcat455, post: 1475240, member: 102653"] I need you to clarify what you are saying here. "All things equal" and "heavy 7 mm bullet" contradict each other. All things equal is all things equal, not all things equal, EXCEPT... Your final statement about less recoil is simply untrue. Compare a 140 gr bullet at 3200 fps out of a 264, and a 139 gr bullet at 3100 fps out of a 7 Mag, And the 7 Mag has more recoil. By .1 foot pounds. 19.2 ft pounds of recoil energy for the 264 in this case, and 19.3 foot pounds for the 7 Mag. Essentially, the same amount of recoil for a given bullet weight at a given speed, with equal weight rifles. It just physics. Here's a link with the data.
