[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 776608, member: 11717"] There is no such thing as "overkill". When deciding which cartridge is best for hunting from 200-1000 yds, the 1000 yds factor trumps. 7mm RM 180 Hybrid, G7 BC .345, MV 2950 1000 yds Vel 1756, KE 1232, 5 MPH wind 4.5 MOA 300 WM 215 Hybrid. G7 BC .356. MV 2950 1000 yds Vel 1788, KE 1526, 5 MPH wind 4.4 MOA The ballistics are very close, but the 300 delivers 25% more KE down range. Bigger hole + more mass = more damage... which means more effective killing. There's no voodoo or magic to it. The 300 WM is a more effective killer than the 7 RM just like the 338 RUM is a more effective killer than the 300 WM. Physics is physics and facts are facts. [/QUOTE]
