[QUOTE="pyroducksx3, post: 548928, member: 20443"] +1 for the 300 win mag, with the 7 stw in a close second. If you look at ballistic charts you would see that there isn't a great difference between a 7stw using 180 bergers, 300 rum using 230 gr bergers, and the 338 edge using 300 gr matchkings. What you will notice is what energy the arrive with. The 338 are way more power than you need. The 300 win is about the right balance. Sure the 7's give similar to better ballistics with less recoil but they don't deliver the energy either. If deer were your only game then I would say the rem mag would be fine but with moose/elk size animals the 300 with heavier bullets is an easy choice [/QUOTE]
