[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 100213, member: 1007"] Dont feel the need to defend your 7mm's!!! The 7mm's have all around great qualities. If they didnt they wouldnt be so popular. I will agree that you will find more recoil in the 300 RUM shooting 200's over the 7mm and a 160. Although I am convinced there is more like 300+ FPE of differance between the 2 at sea level at 1K. How much is that 300 FPE going to help you?? Probably a negligable amount. Its the size of the bullet that makes the impression here. Drop is within 2.4" of eachother to the 7mm's favor. This is based on 3300 FPS for the 7mm and 3200 for the 300. 160 AB and 200 AB respectivly. 300 yard zero. Bottom line, they will both devestate an elk or moose at 500 or 700 yards. As has been stated. Both barrel lives are about the same. [/QUOTE]
