I’m happily married for going on a quarter of a century and I have a 7 Mag (1964 mod. 70) and a 30-06 (1956 model 70) I also have a few .308’s, and a few other calibers as well.
He’s going about it all wrong…..he should be buying all the guns he wants and asking advice about marriage and women. The wrong choice for a mate and no rifle stands a chance. The right choice for a mate and the world of firearms is his oyster. I wish him the best of luck with his new life. 👍

Aces,
Advice worth way more than a rifle.
Lucky here, got a dam good woman, 27 years next week. Not perfect, but better than me. Made me a better, happier guy.
Ain't much can make life worse than a bad one though!

I own 6 or 7 .30-06s. I have owned 2 different 7mm RMs, traded one for a .30-06, traded the other to a friend for a left hand .270 to give to my son in law. The first 7mm RM I owned was a Rem. 700 BDL and was the first CF rifle I ever owned. The 2nd one was inherited and didn't show me much if any advantage over the .30-06. I believe the friend that got that one built a .26 Nosler with it.

30-06. Cheaper to feed and just as useful as the 7mm mag.

30 06's are boring. One big bore to own, the answer is 30 06 . It does it all from 90 gr to 220gr. Takes out anything including groundhogs , bears, liberals and aliens. Shoots all bullets well. By being perfect it ends up boring. Buy one gun and spend the savings on hookers while you are still young. GW

Not surprising, since the parent was the thursday odd sex.
Be not weary in well doing.

Nothing wrong with the 7MM Rem Mag but if you reload it only has an advantage over the 30.06 with the lighter bullets. If you have a 30.06 with a 24" barrel it will shoot the 165 gr and 180 gr bullets about as fast as the 7mm Rem Mag shoots the 160 gr and 175 gr bullets with a lot less powder. The trajectories will be nearly identical. Fans of the 7 mag look askance at one for the comment, and have done so for at least thirty years. But in all reality the 30-06 and 7 mag are ballistic twins in the game fields, when the 30-06 is loaded to its full potential, ie equivalent pressures with the 270. There are white lies, lies, damn lies, and then there is 7mmRM published load data. 7mmRM 66.7 gr IMR-4451, 140 gr Nos bal tip, 3.34" 3384 fps chrono QL predicts 3301 fps 64 kpsi using H4350 =2.5% error

Shootin’ a deer or an elk in the chest with either one of em’ is gonna result in a dead animal.

Don't over analyze the ballistics. They both go boom and will put a nice hole in whatever they hit.

Rem 700 BDL 30-06 is the quintessential modern American rifle. I think the threads here will certainly back that up. Not only with emotion but also a bucket load of facts. 7 Mag is hardly a step up from the 06 because for all practical purposes it is just about equal. Tell him to grab the 06 and buy a 375 H&H and he will be able to hunt the world if his new honey won't let him buy another rifle. Anyway, let us know how it turns out...............
If you find yourself in a hole....quit digging

Marriage and guns go together. If you aren’t careful either one could hurt you badly.
