I get a REAL LAUGH every time I hear that the "experts regard the 7 Mag as on the light side for elk"!! For elephant, perhaps........
Yea, seriously, if that's light, then what IS sufficient? I'm pretty sure a gun that can hold as true as a 7 rem mag and have enough oomph to knock an elk out past 400 yds is sufficient. I personally own one and really like the performance. I think the SA mags might decline but won't leave either. Too many people want a short action for that'Quicker second shot' instead of learning to shoot true.
Who's this mysterious "EXPERT"?
