What sort of 7mm are you shooting. Is it a 7x57, 7-08, 280 rem, or one of the magnums. If it is any of the standard calibres above my suggestion would be to go with either the 140gr coreloct or 130 gr speer hot cor. These have given excellent results in both the 7x57 and 7x64 for myself and one of my mates.
They show consistent expansion and great penetration at ranges from the muzzle out to about 300-350 metres and we have used them on everything from wallabys (small kangaroo) to red deer and thar (Himalayan mountain goat) which are about as tough as an elk. Others who have used them on wapiti report the same results.
Thirty years of consistent results does it for me. I have tried going top the nosler balistic tips but found that they were no better than the corelocts and hot cors just more expensive, though very accurate.
In the magnum calibres I have no experience but here that the premium bullets are the go here. Not a big magnum fan unless I get a 264 win mag one day.
Hope this helps
