[QUOTE="pburton, post: 738678, member: 48978"] I have had a lot of different rifles over the years. One of the best I have owned is a 700 adl in .300 win mag. With a little trigger work and a new stock you will be doing well for the ranges you are talking about. I have a 7mm rem mag in Win mod 70. So far this is my favorite round. I have had .270, 30-06, .300 win mag, and now the 7mm rem mag. In my opinion the recoil depends on the rifle. But in the case that you are talking the 7mm will have a bit more recoil. My suggestion would be to change the recoil pad out to a limbsaver which is relatively inexpensive. With this you will not notice the difference. In my opinion that is a great all around round. My only other sugestion is do not go cheap on the scope. You may have to wait and save up now but you will not regret it in the future. Trust me I have been there. The VX2 is an OK scope but there are far better for a couple hundred more. Good luck with your new rifle... [/QUOTE]
