BS
Hit deer anywhere with one of the big boomers, and it's dead. Bullet placement is overrated, when you use a big gun.

Ain't that the truth.
Roy Weatherby proved that in Africa by shooting hippos in the toe on purpose just to demonstrate his cartridges could shock an animal to death.
Ain't nothing like a "Big Boomer"
i LOVE the kick , that is y i want to go biger , after 2000 shots it is nuting (i am close to 280lb's , more kick the better , i am also looking at a .50cal Steyr HS50 that i can get for $2400 usednot for hunting for for long range
A 150 pound guy could probably take the recoil better. He'll ride with the kick, you'll soak it all up.
Nail a deer in the guts, rump, foreleg or anywhere else with a 7mm RUM and it's gonna drop on the spot.....
My original statement about bullet placement being more important still stands...i don't know how you can sit there with your donut in hand and say that it's BS..i never said it was the be all end all but for an extra 400 fps the 7 RUM has over 7mm Remington Mag i hardly think it makes much of a difference, my friend growing up gutshot a doe with a 7mm remington and it ran for quite a distance before we recovered it the RUM doesn't suddenly change everything.

well go test that out , and let us know how the meat was lol ,
The shockwave from the energy dump, transfered by the leg, will make it's way into the animals nervous system, resulting in death by hydrostatic shock and/or paralysis.
This is apparent to anyone that has used the big magnums to hunt.
If your friend had been using a 7mm RUM, the deer woudl have dropped on the spot due to hydrostatic shockwave and energy dump. Bullet placement is really not that important with the bigger cartridges.
and if that was a 400-500 Yard shot you would of got it with the 7mm rem mag seeing it would droped 2-3" more lol
But at 4 or 500 yards, the 7mm is too slow for the bullet to open. Nope, your better off trying to burn it with the Ultra. More humane too. You think the deer want's to tell all it's buddies at the pearly woods in the sky he died because of an infection caused by a 7mm Remington? That's as bad as saying he was shot with a .30-06 for crying out loud!
