    Spit Watter - Just goes to show, with each idiotic reply you give, you further strengthen what I said above.

    I am the original author to the 7mm mag topic. I thank you all for the input. I have determined that the caliber, bullet type, and marksmanship are all needed for any situation. I believe the "problem" I was having is a result of the caliber being "too" big and "too" fast for med. game. I think most agree that the bullet may pass through without proper expansion, thus not leaving a good blood trail and obviously not knocking the animal down. I still intend on using it, but will keep in mind your opinions. Thanks again.

    You might want to try giving the Remington Managed Recoil rounds a try. Uses a 140 PSP Core-Lokt and is tuned down to a level about midway between the 7X57 Mauser and the 7mm-08.

    I don't need DRT. Through the heart or double lungs will suffice just fine chikenlips. That's real enough for me. LOL!

    Have a good day!

    Ever since college, I've still been going to class. I read and read and read... always learning, always educating myself.

    At least I have some.
