But I disagree with you about the recoil of the 7 magnums, as my new 7 wby really makes a fuss off the bench! She's 200 fps faster and holds 13 grains more powder than my WSM shooting the 160 Partitions, but that difference is noticable! She was knockin' the snot out of me the other day while working up an elk load. crazy My son agreed with me saying that she felt just like any of our "300 Winchester Magnums" cool

Just had to say it one more time


Is it a real lightweight, or does the stock just not suit you?

My old MkV 7mm Weatherbys are a pleasure to shoot compared to the 300 Win. mags I've shot.
