I recently became the owner of a Savage 110 bolt action rifle chambered for the 7mm Mag. I was not really looking for a new rifle, at least not this one, but this was a deal I could not refuse. I fired 20 rounds through it and was more than a little impressed. I had never fired a 7mm before and was surprised at the recoil. This baby has a little “hoist” to it if you know what I mean. It seemed a good bit more then the 30-06 I fired a week before. Second impression was “dead on “ accuracy. At 200 yds it was holding better then 1.5” groups from the prone position through a Bushnell 3x-9x Banner scope. I thought that I might sight it in, however, I was pleased to find out it was on the money.
Question is: who has experience with 7mm Mags and how do they stack up compared to the .308’s and 30-06’s ? Also, how good a rifle is this Savage 110?
