Thread: 7mm rem mag ammo availability

My first hunting rifle was a .270 and I owned it before suppressors were a thing. On the range I would notice the recoil after 10 rounds or so, never felt it actually shooting deer.
At the time I weighed about 65kgs so there wasn't much of me to absorb the recoil.
A suppressor would have made it more comfy to shoot, a muzzle brake would reduce recoil even more, not all ranges allow muzzle brakes though, not a problem if you have private land to shoot on.
That said... given the availability of ammo at the moment, .308 would be a good choice. It will kill anything in NZ.
