Is the 7mm Rem Mag the 40 S&W of the Hunting Round World?

Exterior ballistics can be similar, but terminal ballistics are very different. The 270 doesn't come close in that area.

Especially when the High BC 175s come into the discussion & on to the 195 EOLs.

I’m certain you are familiar with these.

No, I'm not and thanks for the link.

0.5 MOA guarantee on a lightweight rifle is outstanding, but $$$$$$!!!

My Dad has always used a 7mm Rem mag. He has taken a slew of deer with it, and hogs too. He has busted them at 400+ yards several times.

I like 7mag a lot, especially when hunting fields, but the .270 is my go to. Still, I consider 7mag to be a top 4 hunting rifle caliber for my personal tastes.

I've killed more deer with a 300WM than anything else.

Wait... what?!! The 308 is second?!!!

shot more with a 270,I hunt mostly 308 now.

What wouldn't it kill around here?

Exactly. I was thinking it ranks much lower. Top 10, maybe.

I think when the short mags came out it put a damper on the long actions.

7 mag is very capable of killing any North American game animal . Although I'd choose something bigger for grizz ;0)

One of my 7mag victims . There have been a few

On my kill list it sits in 3rd place . 3006 is 1st . 3030 2nd..

When I grew up in Virginia it was all about the 30-30,30-06,243 and 270. That's all you every heard about. The 243 mainly for the younger hunters.
