your 7mm is just fine.. BUT if u want sumthin new any decent 243, 270, 30- 06 will do just fine.. i own and prefer the 270 myself.. likley just because i own one though.. lol.. works fine though.. i have shot deer with it at 15 yards and out to 225.. but it will kill em at much farther than that also

the 7mm will work for any thain you need to kill unless you live in africa but if you want something small get a browning or winchester youth model or if you biger you might not nead a youth model and get any thian from 223 to 270 i recomend a 243-243 wssm or 270-270 wsm

heck the 7mm with do the trick on deer, elk, moose bear, u got a .22 perfect for varmints, 12 gauge for birds and now just like what coyote buster said get yourself a .223, 22-250, .243 for coyotes and there is nothin in North America you wont beable to hunt, well unless you go for some alaskan/yukon moose and grizzs then i would suggest something a lil bigger then a 7mm but it would still do the trick
