"M77Man: I do not know if anyone ever told you this or not. All caps on amessage boardis tanamount to screaming in a crowded room and is not polite. i used to have a 7mm Rem. Mag. and reloaded for it extensively.Assuming that the loads have the same operating pressure,any 140 grain bullet will give less recoil than 160 grain."

Sorry about the caps, I wasn't yelling,just trying to get my point accrossed that I have the very same gun and based on my actual experience the 140 grain Winchester Accubond kicked extremely hard while a 160 grain WolfAND a 150 grain Federal Power Shock hardly even felt the recoil at all. My experience with the same gun he has tells me it's more so based on powder charge then weight of round.
