For those thinking about it… check with your state legislation and see what the minimal caliber is. I know that some states requite at least a 6mm or 25.

After that is said… I say no… You loose 400 fps in the 22 cal selection and I think we owe it to what we are hunting to find another platform. I think the 7-30 Waters is awesome and is very under rated. With that being said, if you are worried about recoil I would say call MGM and order a 14in 7mm TCU and hand load it with 120 Nosler’s. Nosler’s loading data lists a 120 at over 2400 fps and even lists their 140 at over 2250.

I would also give JD Jones a call and ask him some questions. I have heard that the 6.5 JDJ is very recoil friendly and extremely accurate.
