[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 729219, member: 14204"] It don't get no simpler than that! With the .300 Win Mag, you'll have plenty of choices in brass and bullets (esp. in the 200+ gr) too. At $300-$400 and up a pop for a blank barrel + smith re-barreling cost could certainly up. The last re-barrel cost for me was $375 for the barrel and $250 smith cost. If you require muzzle brake, it's ~ $100 thread and install (not counting the brake). And since .300 Win Mag is about triple, that's ~$2,250 cost (unless you can do the smithing yourself) over the 7MM RUM you need to consider. But it that's within your budget, then it might not be a factor for you. I have limited funds for hunting/shooting, so it's a factor for this budget conscious member ... just saying. Good luck!
