I hunt with a 270 Win and my hunting partner hunts with a 7MM Rem Mag. We did exit interviews with all of the game that we shot and asked them which gun was more effective. There was a strange silence after the question. I couldn't figure out why. Maybe it was because they were dead. You do not need any more gun than your current 7MM. I realize that you may feel the need for one. I very often feel the need for a new rifle in a more "sexy" calibre but I keep going back to my interviews of dead animals. They were just as dead as if I had shot them with another calibre. Most guys are not too happy about the recoil of the 300's and don't get as familiar with them as other calibres. IMHO
