[QUOTE="Playtimefun, post: 3087590, member: 103742"] I gotta add my 2 cents only because I LOVE any and all of the 300 magnums. I own 1 x 300 WSM, 5 x 300 WM, 3 x 300 Wby, 1 x 300 RUM, 1 x 30-378 Wby. I just haven't found a 300 H&H or 30 Ruger yet that I like enough to buy (gun configuration wise yet). No animal alive can tell the difference between the 300 Wby and RUM... Dead is dead and the magnums are fantastic performers both short and long range. Of course that's if you use a decently constructed bullet. Ironically for me... for the 300 Wby... big cow moose running at about 200 yards... dropped with 1 shot in 20 yards. For the 300 RUM... 6x6 bull elk at 250 running across a field... dropped with 1 shoot in 15-20 yards. When that happens... you just develop such confidence in the cartridges that if it's a critical hunt... you want them. Availability wise... pretty hard not to find 300 Wby ammo anywhere. The RUM is there but nowhere near as available. I couldn't help myself one day when I found a Blaser K95 (I had been looking for a bit) and I ran into an awesome deal... and the closer which made it an absolute no brainer... it was in 300 Wby!!! Wife still doesn't know about that one... THANK GOD!!! [/QUOTE]
