[QUOTE="Brad Quarnberg, post: 2927012, member: 107866"] I have a 270 win and 270 WSM. Bought a 6.5 PRC just to see what it would do and after shooting if for a year and taking a muley buck last season I sold it. Not because it couldn't shoot; it had great accuracy. I have a 300 WSM as well, and frankly wouldn't trade it or get rid of it. The 300 Win/WSM are very versatile cartridges, and has been mentioned, can be loaded for different circumstances if wanted. I personally use my 300 for Elk and bear but if I knew I was hunting an area with real long shots possible, that gun loaded with high BC bullets can really reach out and hit with authority. Lastly, I have a 6.5 Creedmoor. It's a great gun for the grandkids to shoot and hunt with, and I use it on occasion for predator hunting, but prefer the 270 for the lion share of my hunting. My 300 is light weight and sports a limb saver pad and a break and the reoil is light enough I can and do put 20 or more rounds down range from the bench without issue, especially when I'm working up loads or getting ready for a hunt with the potential for long range (500+ yards) shots and I'm practicing those long-range shots. SD has some wide-open spaces and a 300 WM would be a great long range deer gun with the right high BC bullets. Just my plug nickel. [/QUOTE]
