The 7mm Rm is as good as it ever was - which is to say it is good well past ranges where most shots at game are taken. A 150g LRAB at 3000fps at 7000 feet will retain over 2100fps and 1500fpe at 700 yards. And it will do it with recoil about the same as many .30-06 loads.

Not too shabby.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
