I have had the following 7MM Rem Mags. 700 Remington BDL, Ruger 77, Winchester M70 and two Savage rifles. They all shot pretty well. For me the Model 700 had the least felt recoil. Maybe it fit me the best. The Winchester I had was not a good one and would not even reach 280 velocities. The Savage had the most felt recoil. The Ruger did everything well. I would pick the 700 Rem first and the Ruger would be a close second. I do like Savage rifles but prefer them in smaller calibers. The way they fit me they always seem to have more recoil. I have had them in most all calibers from 223 to 338 Win Mag. Good shooters.
