I think you're thinking of the 9MM Doc I have a 9MM
The 7mm Remington Magnum is a rifle.
It has a slightly larger case and holds enough powder to push a 175-grain bullet faster than a .270 could move its lighter bullet.
That means that the 175-grain bullet from the 7mm Magnum retains nearly 2,000 ft/lbs of energy at 400 yards.
Bullet drop is about 42 inches at 400 yards, better than the .270 and without a lot more recoil.
Minimal bullet drop and its knock down power at the extreme range are its credentials.
