Sorry, bumped the enter key.

I also wanted to address the preconception that the 7mm bullets have better BC and therefore have better downrange energy. See if this does not change your mind:

165 Grain Barnes BC .505
180 Grain BarnesBC .552
200 Grain Accubond BC.588

The BC of 30 caliber bullets are as good as they get in hunting weight bullets it is only when you compare the light 30s vs the middleweight 7MMs does the 7MM appears to have an edge.

Also when it comes to handloads the 06 can deliver over 2000 LBS of energy at 450 yards with the 180 Grain XLC bullet @1000 ft abovesea level. I am pretty confident that is better than any 7MM handloads energy at that distance.
