[QUOTE="angus-5024, post: 535924, member: 10306"] If your looking for a rifle that you can do alot of target work with I would go with the .300 WSM. The .300 RUM is just to hard on barrels to see alot of rounds. The other consideration is the weight of the rifle, generally most guys prefer a heavier rifle when it comes to the ultra mags, and you said you want kin of a "cross -over" so the lighter recoiling .300 WSM gets my vote. If you plan on shooting it very little then the Rum will get you out to 700-800 yards a bit easier. The WSM can also use a shorter barrel. I know you said you dont want a .338. but I feel that the .338 RUM would meet your needs well too. [/QUOTE]
