Do I really need a 300 WM?

[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 953809, member: 6452"] Ditto. I have my .308 that I regularly burn powder in to practice. It's not a complete ***** cat so I do have to manage a bit of recoil. Then I have my 7mm Rem Mag that I only shoot a few times. Won't shoot it every range session the .22 and .308 take the brunt. Maybe shoot 5 rounds through the magnum just to keep up to speed on the feel of the gun, scope and recoil. I'd say keep your .243 then get either a .300 or 7mm Mag. The .30-06 is more of a one-gun 'tweener that sort of does what either end of the spectrum does. If you are like me and really mean that you will not shoot at an elk beyond 600 yards then you don't need anything bigger than a 7mm or .300. [/QUOTE]
