If you look at the ballistics at the Managed recoil 7mm load, it appears to turn the 7mm into roughly the same trajectory/energy levels as a normal 30/06, which is perfect for any whitetail...Why beat the $^&^%out of yourself hunting whitetails at 200 yards? You can still get the good stuff with top shelf bullets for muleys and elk...mst people would shoot ALOT better without all the recoil that comes with it...

I've gotten the best groups of my life with the 30-06 managed recoil load, am hunting with it right now, but as mentioned in a post above I can't take more than 150 yard shot due to terrain. When I get one with it I'll let you know how they do-
