    Trying to deside which rifle to buy for white tail deer hunting:
    1. 7 mm WSM
    2. 7 mm Mag.
    3. 30-06
    Shooting range 150-500 yards. People have told me that the 7mmMag will be too big. Need some advise on the 7mm WSM. I know for sure that the 30-06 will be suitable. Your advise will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, DG (rookie hunter)

    The 7MM WSM has been a great gun for me.....A little less recoil than the 7Mag, but I think all the kick stuff depends on the type of gun.....It was a little stiff at first, but not bad......I took my dremel tool with the buffing pad and jewelers rouge and buffed all the edges in the magazine and entrance to the chamber.......Smooth as a babies behind.....No problem with loading or feeding at all.......Nice gun......got an elk and a buddy borrowed it and got a ram with it last year.......I bought some brass off Ebay and loaded up the 140 grain Nosler CT Ballistic Tips.......shot some other weights, but the 140's seemed to hold the tightest......

    The Wsm is a good accurate round. We have sold a fair amount of them in our shop and the customers are happy with it. The short action is stiffer and the short fat powder column ignites and burns smoother making it inherently more accurate. It is easy to reload and has practically the same ballistics as the Rem. 7 Mag. If you are going to shoot the very heaviest of bullets the Remington would be better because of the slightly larger case capacity ability to not run into pressure problems with them. If you are in need of a magnum rifle Im sure you will be happy with it.
