Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Who has a 7 mag?

Two 7mm Weatherby Magnums in Mark V rifles. One 24” and one 26” barrel. No prisoners , ever.

If I were to ever 7 “mag!!!”, it would be Roy. 👊🏻

No. I believe Schultz and Larsen were the only ones to ever offer it in a factory chambering.

The 3rd successful factory 7 mm Magnum.

280 Ross (.287)




275 H&H







7x61 S&H

I had one years ago. Never warmed to the caliber because of it. Bad stock design maybe, but it kicked like a friggen mule. I had a .308 Norma Mag on a 03-A3 customized which shot better with less felt recoil. Got rid of the 7 after a half-box, and never looked back as an owner, tho I've shot many of them since. I'd have bought that Husquavarna I worked on some years later, tho. 5-leaf clovers at 100, and mild felt-recoil. Owner wouldn't sell it, dang him anyway!

I do have half a dozen boxes of 7 mag ammo tho, in case I ever run out of .270, '06 and .338 WM fodder and components and can't get more. I can buy the rifle..

66 gr of RL 26 gave me 3000 fps and 3 shot 1/2” group .020 off lands in my 700 26” barrel. Very Happy with that

I have 2 7mm Remington Mag’s- both are Model 700’s, one is an LSS and the other a Long Range. Both shoot great but I’ve only used the Long Range for ground hogs. Might have to take the LSS out deer hunting sometime soon.
