[QUOTE="Scimitar762, post: 1974035, member: 115392"] If you don't want the recoil or capacity of the 7mm Mag you could also look at the 280 AI. My brother has 2 of them. We load a Federal Edge TLR 155 gr at around 3000 fps. That bullet has been tested to expand all the way down to 1400. It's made like Nosler ballistic tip in the front with the rear like a barnes solid copper. We shot some at close range seeing if they would break up, they didn't. He bagged a nice 6x6 Elk in Nee Mexico last year and it worked great. Also tested here in NC on some Whitetails and it expanded fine. [/QUOTE]
