RE: 7mm Ultra Mag vs. the 300 Ultra Mag
3DNWV, I have no doubts that anyone including "stonecold" can't hit a deer at 400 yards. The point I was trying to make was that if someone had doubts about hitting a deer at 400 yards+ with a 7mm Rem Mag, the 7 Ultra Mag wasn't going to guarantee a hit."stonecold" responded that the rifle was his concern, not the cartridge.I know that people shoot long range all the time.I have hit gophers at over 350 yards with a 22-250 and that's a pretty small target,so hitting a deer at 400 shouldn't be that hard if the shooter is up to the task.But it's a big "if".Adding a couple inches of trajectory is not going to make a shooter into a long range sniper.Practice and knowing your rifle and it's trajectory will.
