[QUOTE="Petras, post: 137669, member: 216"] My 7mm mag with my handload berger 168's will do the trick for everything I ever plan to shoot at. Still haven't perfected my handloads yet, but they do the trick. Took my buck at 300 yards last year, dropped dead in it's tracks. I don't personally believe there is such a thing as too much gun for deer. My remington 700 synthetic is really light, so the recoil used to suck, but after the first trip to the range I installed a limbsaver pad on the back of it and now it kicks about the same as my dads old 6mm. The nice thing about the 7 mag is there is a nice wide range of factory ammo readily available from 139 grain to 175 grain. AND, if you are willing to get into reloading, there are some recipes out there for 120grain rounds that really haul ass. [/QUOTE]
