RE: 7mm rem mag
Recoil would be about the same as a hot loaded 30-06. For taking game, the 7MM Rem Mag fits in with the 270, 280 and 30-06. I have owned five of them and did my best to like this caliber. It didn't work and I would never own another. Its recoil is well above that of the 270 but its performance is not all that much better for the kick you get. Its a good caliber if you don't mind the recoil but I don't need the punishment.
