F=1/2mv^2 Force equals one half mass times velocity squared. Because velocity gets squared, more velocity will get more force quicker than more mass. The 7mm has more energy. You also have to consider the weight of the rifle. |

You also have to consider the weight of the rifle. When you're carrying it and when you're shooting it.
