RE: Which would you get?
 
Both would work great for the situations you mentioned. If recoil is a problem for you, I would say go with the 7mm. For me the recoil seems about the same as an ' 06. I know some people who can handle an ' 06 but find a 300 Win Mag a bit to much. I belive that the 7mm Rem Mag is one of the most versitile cartridges availible. Good luck!!

300 mag. Anytime you are hunting bears, you want power over speed

I' ve been considering the between the same 2 calibers. Since I want to use it primarily for Elk, but possibly for whitetail, I' m planning to get a .300 WM. When looking at the trajectory charts I don' t see much difference of the 7 mm being much flatter for similar weight slugs. The big difference I see is the significant high " energy" rating with the .300 Win. Mag.

I own a 7-mag, but for an over all big game killer, I' d have the .300-mag.
