[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 892514, member: 11717"] Better for what? The RUMs will have a greater effective range by about 100-200 yds. They also consume more powder and have shorter barrel life. IMO, a serious long range hunting rifle should have a brake so recoil is a non issue, but I have shot a 300 RUM for a couple of years without a brake, and yes it kicks hard. I put a brake on my recent built 300 RUM and 6-284. Sure didn't need it on the 6-284 but it makes it much easier to stay or get back on target quickly and just nicer to shoot. The worth or value is up to you. [/QUOTE]
