I prefer the 300 win mag but also agree with Ridge Runner I'd make it a 7mm STW and reach out reach out and touch someone.


But here's my personal load for my 300 win mag and there's a big difference vs. a regular 7mm Rem Mag. And that's at sea level take it to the altitude I live at and it becomes a super magnum at long ranges.

Range (yards) Muzzle 50 100 200 300 400 500
Velocity (fps) 3180 3085 2993 2813 2641 2475 2315
Energy (ft.-lb.) 3705 3487 3281 2900 2555 2244 1964
Trajectory (200 yd. zero) -1.5 0.3 1.2 0.0 -5.6 -16.1 -32.3
Come Up in MOA -1.5 -0.6 -1.1 0.0 1.8 3.8 6.2
