Groundhog Hunting - Remington 700 and Tikka T3 7mm Mags

Our first woodchuck hunt of the year turned out great with all long range shots. The wind picked up later on which made the shots more challenging. My cousin brought his Remington 700 7mm mag; previously featured on other Chuckin videos. I brought out my newer Tikka T3 Hunter 7mm mag.
Our loads:
Remington 700 7mm RM • 7mm Mag 110gr Barnes TTSX
162gr Amax
66gr RE22
Hornady case
3.29" OAL
Tikka T3 7mm RM • Tagging out deer seaso...
162 ELD-X
64gr RE-23
Nosler case
3.29" OAL

    I was raised on farms and ranches and did a lot of this kind of shooting when I was a young man. Watching your videos brings back a lot of fond memories! I still shoot but not like I got to back then. Eventually, rifle shooting got to be to easy so I went full time "Elmer Keith" on chucks and ground squirrels and only recently got back into rifles. Thanks for posting such great chuck shooting videos with skilled shooting in them guys!

    Just going to plant a seed. .338 Lapua Magnum is your next logical rifle to add to the chuckin' program. I hear 2 out of 3 woodchucks ask for it by name. Do it for the chucks.

    I mean no offense when I say this. I own a tang safety M77 in 7mm Rem Mag. I absolutely love it. It’s just when I see these videos I think to myself, “Damn, that’s a lot of gun for a groundhog.” Excellent shooting, fellas. Keep me coming.

    I own over 50 calibers of rifles, but I think the .300 Wby Mag is my favorite magnum caliber. It hauls ass.

    Thanks. At the time of this video, I was running the Leupold VX2 4-12x. I was able to get 2 hits on a chuck at 620yds with that setup. That footage is on my Tikka Hunter review. Since then, I upgraded the stock and scope. Check out my more recent videos. Thanks for watching.

    That's a tough question. I like them equally I'd say. Its all in what bullet weights you want to use. The 7mm has a higher ballistic coefficient at much lower weights than the .308 diameter bullets. To put it in perspective, I shoot the 162gr ELD-X out of my 7mm with a bc of .62. I would need to shoot a 210gr in the 300WM to approach that bc. The 300 has a higher powder capacity and has an edge on initial velocity. My 300WM is a little more accurate than my 7mm, but that's because I've had a lot more time with it and load testing. The 7mm is already a .5moa shooter with only 150 rounds through it.

    7mm mag is fairly large caliber, kind of want to see what it does to the groundhog in the aftermath. I know its a little twisted to ask but I need to know lol
