7mm rem mag vs 7mm ultra mag...

Anyone know how much farther the ultra mag shoot compared to the rem mag? Basically how to two compare against each other.

 

Been looking to purchase a long range rifle. I'm considering the 300 win mag, 7mm rem mag or ultra mag.

 

Thanks in advance.

Well, per my reloading info from Nosler:

 

7mm Remington Mag:

120gr bullet / max muzzle velocity load - 3570 fps = 27" drop at 500 yds

175gr bullet / max muzzle velocity load - 2970 fps = 43.6" drop at 500 yds

 

300 Winchester:

125gr bullet / max muzzle velocity load - 3470 fps = 30.5" drop at 500 yds

200gr bullet / max muzzle velocity load - 2970 fps = 43.2" drop at 500 yds

 

So at "max recommended load" they are very similar - the 300 Winchester carries a little more max force with the larger round in size/weight. Your results may vary depending on ammo you purchas or load.

 

Hope that helps...

 

Sorry, no "ultra mag" info in my book...
