[QUOTE="smtippin, post: 893905, member: 37315"] You have a great argument for going larger than the 7 rem mag, but at this point larger is not in my plan. I can heart shoot a deer or elk out to 500 yards cleanly with the 7 mag and in the great state of Wyoming, I can generally fill my tag with those parameters. Often times my shots are within 200 yards. While larger may be in the future, a softer recoil yet ethical deer/antelope gun would help me get apprehensive family/friends in the sport. While the 7 rem mag can handle a lower load, the two loads that I go between currently are 140gr Nosler ballistic tips and 168 gr Berger VLD Hunting. Having a dedicated light skinned rifle would be ideal in my mind. I appreciate your advice and would love to hear more opinions. Thanks, s [/QUOTE]
