7mm mag
I've read articles and looked at charts and stuff, but have never actually shot the 7mm mag before. My questions are: 1) When compared to the .270 is the increase in performace worth the additional recoil and ammo cost (considering Eastern US hunting -- mostly whitetails)? 2) Is the 7mm mag as versatile as the .270 in regards to loads, bullet weights available, and hunting opportunities? Thanks.

i got a 7mm mag and when i take to the range my first shot its two inches high at 100 yards my second shot at 1 inch higher my 3rd shot dead on 100 and every shot after that it stays around dead on. why does it shot 2inches low the first shot then levels off after a couple shots. 0 -
Not sure of which 7mm Mag your thinking of but it sure is a awful good choice.
7mm Remington Mag would be a litle slower than the Weatherby 7mm Mag, and ammo for the Rem Mag is a little cheaper if you don't reload, than the Weatherby's are. Both are great factory rounds.
Personally I would find or build a 280 Ackley Improved and be done with it.

How about some exterior ballistics? 
Good hunting.

Good Info. I own the Remington 700 and it shoots great. 7mm will drop a deer or an elk.

The 7mm Rem Mag has basically become the runner-up for the venerable .30-06, in terms of popularity with american big game hunters. It can kill anything the '06 can, and shoots flatter. My personal belief is that the only reason it has not surpassed the .30-06 in sales is that the .30-06 enjoyed a 56 year dominance in the cartridge market prior to the 7mm RM's introduction.
It's easy to spot liberals-they are the ones who have no assets to protect and need every handout they can get. They have forbeyed themselves ascendence to a productive lifestyle.0
