I'll second the 150grain ballistic tip,when I shot my 7mag that's what I fed it.Not gonna tell ya how to shoot but if you'd move back alittle off the shoulder and shoot at the crease behind the shoulder,every thing you shoot with that 7 should fall dead where it's standing.

Well shot second deer today with federal premium sierra game king 150gr btsp 100 yards. 110lb doe quartered toward went in behind front shoulder "NO EXIT HOLE" again it angled threw vitals and was lodged in front of other shoulder just in the skin the bullet I recovered was hollow....... IMO this is crappy ammo thank goodness she dropped had she ran prob never found her. I can't wait to try these Bergers. Think I'm just gonna hunt with 444 till they arrive.

"thank goodness she dropped"

Sounds like it did the job

Yea but when they don't drop there's another meal for the buzzards

Partition or Accubond. Or, if you don't think those penetrate enough, Barnes tipped Triple Shock. If one of those 3 don't penetrate enough for you, I don't know what to tell you...

Have that 7 mag chamber extended to a 7mm STW, shoot a 165gr sierra gk boat tail. Then you will have a magnum that gives exit holes. :)

+1. I can't imagine a 7mm Rem Mag not leaving an exit hole, though. The only deer I shot that didn't have an exit hole was a 190 lb 6pt that I shot facing me in the left shoulder. The 160 gr Partition went all the way to the right hip and was recovered just under the skin and turned the entire body cavity to mush...

:shock:
