RE: 9mm or .45

Nothing wrong with any of them, I still prefer the .45. It may not carry as much ammo, but if you can shoot, you won't need it : )

RE: 7mm mag

check another vote for the 7mm rem. I have one in a Weatherby Vangard, and love it. If you handload it's about as versatile as it gets. If you don't, it's still pretty good
