[QUOTE="orion2000, post: 573052, member: 32578"] One Lucky, Oh to have to make the decision you are burdened with.... :) Practically speaking, anything in the 7 RM, 300 WM, 300 WBY, 338 realm will cleanly harvest the animals you are interested in. The difference in powder costs will be inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. And there is no such thing as "over kill" at short distances. Dead is dead. We owe it to the game animals we hunt to "use enough gun", and, practice often so that only one well placed shot is necessary. If recoil is an issue, and you plan to hand load, you can always down load to suit the situation. As mentioned above, choosing a chambering for the .308 bore size will give you the broadest selection of bullet choices for the foreseeable future. I am toying with the same concept. I have the donor action (Rem 700 SS LA LH). I am personally debating between the 300H&H, 300WM and 300WBY. Good luck to you with which ever combination you choose ! Let us know what you finally decide... [/QUOTE]
