[QUOTE="luvcatchingbass, post: 278704, member: 1979"] I like my 7mm Rem Mag and recoil on it doesn't bother me that much, but then again I got an adjustable slip on recoil pad I added to give me a more comfortable shouldering length. Normally reload and normally use 140-150gr Barnes for whitetail but this year tried some Federal Premium with 168gr Bergers because I found a really good deal on them. 168gr is overkill I know but they grouped so good I figured they were worth a test run, performance on my buck at about 200yds was great and the only major meat loss was the offside shoulder that I hit. That being said for some reason I find myself wanting a 300 or 338 win mag just because. I have a 6.5-284 that I like but if I was traveling for anything up to moose I would be grabbing the 7mm just in case something happens to my ammo as it is easier to find good shells off the shelf if need be. Only knock on my 7mm is I need to replace the trigger with a timney because after shooting more crisp triggers that Ruger trigger is ugly especially bench shooting. [/QUOTE]
