[QUOTE="Paul Wyatt, post: 37434, member: 2924"] dakor I shot a 300 mag for years at both deer and elk and love the rifle and the caliber, so no argument there. For the last 8 years, I have used a 338 caliber and IMO it does everything that the 300 does only better. Some of these rifles kill on one end and maime on the other and at times it's difficult to tell which end your on! As jb1000br has eluded the 340 Weatherby is notorious for recoil, but 11 pounds is a heavy rifle and will go a long way in taming the punishment. If I were going to be shooting the rifle a lot as in target and or varmits, I would have a brake mounted on either caliber because they will wear you out in a days shooting. [/QUOTE]
