The 7Mag is a little much for deer, but it doesn't kill them too dead, so I guess I'll keep using it
Jordan: The big 7's are among my favorites as an all-round big game cartridge,and I've used it on whitetails many times,mostly in Canada;and of course on mule deer as well.The 270 works well with 20-22" barrels,making it a handier rifle in heavy cover,but still able to cover the occaisional long range chance.Where you live,long range is more common; the 7 mag is clearly a great choice.
