[QUOTE="WildBillG, post: 1743511, member: 106952"] I have been working with a friends in 300WM and it is a real shooter. My only beef is the trigger and the magazine needed some work. I adjusted the trigger and it never really changed the pull weight. Then one day out of know where it turned to a hair trigger and some times would not cock. Found out last night some how sear spring is gone. Luckly I found a old Remington spring and with some work got it working again. He has a Jard trigger comming for it though. The magazine required some work with a Dremel tool to get to work right but is fine now. It was binding on the shoulder area of the 300WM brass. Apperently others have run into this with other cartridges too. All this said it is a real nice gun to shoot and superbly accurate.. They also come with fast twist barrels so you can load the heavy long range type bullets. I would buy one and get an after market trigger. Also while at the store ask to try magazine to assure the cartridge you choose will feed through the magazine properly. The muzzle break does make his 300 nice to shoot but a side port brake may tame recoil even more. It took very little load work to find a load it liked as well. The choice now will be up to you.
