Why the 7mm Rem Mag?

[DoneNOut]

What does a .300 Win do that a 7mm Rem Mag won't?

Tons of stuff!

The argument something pre dates something so its better, ain't helping me much here.

I never said it was.

What was your point then, exactly?

Let's do this thread starting with the 30-40 Krag. Result is the same
I'll wait.

That makes no sense. Just because someone started a logical fallacy once doesn't mean we have to go down a downward spiral of stupidity.

Makes as much sense as your question. Just research why Winchester created it.

You are definitely not nudging me to jump into the 7mm. If you are an ambassador for the 7mm I'm afraid you have been recalled.

Any specific examples? Not what you've read on the internet by the "experts", but actual real life examples.

The 300wm rattles most peoples teeth. The 7RM does not. The 7rm is slightly flatter and less wind drift out to normal hunting range. Cost less to shoot, more fun and pleasant to shoot.

Like we do this because we're really out to save money! Oh and tell me where any round doesn't cost an arm and a leg these days and I'll kiss your front door knob.

I pre date the internet and you're from California. So real life examples taught me not to argue with such folks as you as you will only drag me to your level and win by experience. (That's the cheesiest comeback I could muster, hope you could at least find humor in it)

I have owned and shot game with both.
They both will kill at the distances I like to shoot.The main reason I have no 7mm mag now is the 300 win mag has a better bullet selection and I own other 30 cal rifles.
So if a person owns several 7mm rifles I would suggest 7mm mag but more 30 cal rifles then I would recommend 300 win mag.

Lets say you had a new buyer into the game and starting anew.

300 win mag as 30 cal has better bullet selection

I love both the 7mm Rem Mag and 300 Win, and have several of each. I like variety and I'm a rifle addict. But if I had to pick just one it would be a 300 Win.
