Default RE: elk rifle

Recoil hurts accuracy and to someone who's a 1 time elk hunter, you need all the accuracy you can get on a long shot.
Perhaps recoil effects your accuracy,but some of us can be quite accurate in spite of recoil.The groups below were fired with an unbraked 300ultramag that produces significant recoil.Does it look like the recoil is affecting the accuracy?And it should be noted that the 300ultramag case is much longer than your saum case.Can you do better with your 7mmsaum with less recoil and a shorter case?
