RE: 7mm mag
 

Been shooting and reloading for my 7 mm mag for almost 25 years. Love it. I also have 7 other deer rifle cal. that I load for also but for some reason each season I reach for the ol'faithful. I guess some habits die hard. I will use one of the others for second deer tag but after shouldering my Savage 110 for so many years it just seems as an extension to myself.

I bought my first7mm in 1977 at the age of eighteen. It wasa Remington 700 BDL that someone bought, shot once and didn't like the kick.I picked it up for $175.00 and shot it until I bought a new Remington 700SSalso in 7mm in 1999. Overkill for deer? yes but I love shooting it. I still have both but switched over to bow hunting in 2000 and haven't shot it to much lately. Great cartridge! Ken

I like the 7mmremmag,but after owning two Weathery Mark V rifles,I will never own another.My remington 700s that cost half as much were more accurate than my Mark Vs.

7mm Rem Mag is my all around favorite big game cartridge. I find the recoil to be minimal at best (and I don't like hard kicking rifles). If I could afford to I'd shoot mine all day shooting P-Dogs. But those days are gone now with the costs of reloading supplies.

My 7mm Rem is a Browning A-Bolt Stalker, and it is also the most accurate out of the box rifle I own. It will put 3 shots under .5MOA at 100 yards, and it will do that at 300 yards for me on a good day as well. It does open up to about 1.5" on a bad day at 300 yards.

WOW! That's not very inspiring. My Vanguard can key hole groups.

RE: 7mm mag
 

I prefer the Howa made Vanguards to the Mark Vs.

RE: 7mm mag
 

Do you have a Vanguard or a Howa?

RE: 7mm mag
 

I owned a Howa,and have fired several vanguards.
