I was wondering why you needed that much rifle anyway. I don't see any reason why a 7mm mag won't do a dandy job with bullets matched to game being hunted. The 7mm mag has successfully killed thousands of elk cleanly. Just because the companys come out with new rifles and cartridges almost every year,don't mean the ole tried and true calibers all of a sudden won't work anymore-look at the old 30-06.
