[QUOTE="spartan231490, post: 509951, member: 34103"] Hey, I'm new to the forums today. I actually joined because of this thread, as I am having a similar dilemma. I can't decide between the .300 RUM and the 7mm RUM, and with so many people having actually shot them I thought it would be a good place to get advice. Most of my shots where I normally hunt are 60 yards or less, but I also get pretty frequent shot opportunities at 200 yards or so. Obviously, both of these guns are significantly more powerful than I need, but I've always been a fan of overkill, and I also want an ultra magnum for collecting reasons. I'm not concerned with kick, I'm a big guy and I go to the range routinely and put 2 boxes of 3 inch magnums through my 12 gauge. A couple places that I've come across on the internet while comparing these two calibers mention that the Ultra mags are a little inaccurate at close range. Does this have any truth to it? Also, how expensive are the magnum rifles. I only really have $1000 dollars at most to spend right now, can I even get an ultra mag for that much? I'm more than willing to buy used. Finally, does anyone make a pump action rifle chambered for either of these calibers? [/QUOTE]
