Default 7mm Rem. Mag. - Managed Recoil Ammo ???

Hey guys... As everyone who reads my posts knows, I've been a .243 shooter for a while, converted from using my .30-06 because I'm really not a fan of recoil.

A while back, I inherited a Remington 700 BDL 7mm Rem Mag with a Leupold 3-9X scope from a good friend who died in a plane crash. I'm curious as to whether any of you have used the Remington's Managed Recoil Ammo in your 7mm Rem. Mag., and what has been your opinion of this ammo. According to the ballistics charts, it appears to be about mid range in performance between the 7X57 and the 7mm-08. I'd like to use my friend's rifle for some deer hunting next fall, but really don't relish the idea of range sessions to make sure the scope is zeroed... He had it sighted in with the 175 gr. PSP's, which I don't really think are needed for our 150 lb. Hill Country whitetails...
