RE: 7mm mag loads
handloader listed some excellent bullets. You want at least 1000 ft-lb for deer and 2000 ft-lb for elk the 7mm mag can take a deer out to 400 yards but, the effective range for elk ends at about 250 yds.I personally use the Barnes XLC 160 gr. in a 7mm mag. (@ 250 yds about 2000 ft-lb)which, has performed flawlessly in the field.
there is no subsitute for quality
