[QUOTE="ndweimer, post: 473202, member: 1574"] Coming from a guy that use to think bigger was better, research some other calibers. I use to love my 7mm Rem. Mag, not any more. I began shooting the 6.5 PRC a few years ago and couldn't be happier. Never going back down the magnum route again. The lack of recoil and better ballistics from my 6.5 PRC trumps everything I thought I had in a magnum. The 156 EOL Berger in my PRC vs. the 168 VLD out of the 7mm, produces 150 fps and 130 more ft. lbs of energy at 500 yards. I will echo what SDMF is preaching, lower recoil will make it easier to shoot long range and bullet placement will trump power in most instances. [/QUOTE]
