I'd recommend a pretty tough heavy, controlled expansion bullet or else you're gonna make a mess and damage a good bit of meat, especially at close range. Unless you don't care about meat loss.
175 gr Nosler Partition maybe?
A 7mm Rem Mag is overkill for whitetail under 200 yards, period. And it won't put 'em down any faster than a .243 or anything else. A well placed shot means everything, and a bad shot is a bad shot no matter what caliber you use.
If you reload, use starting loads and you will be better off.
Or just buy a 7mm-08
Ok magnum lovers, go ahead and start ripping this post to shreds.
