[QUOTE="RemingtonShooter, post: 669812, member: 25739"] Hello all, So, I have decided that I need (well...more like want) a 300 Mag. I have approached this with the normal OCD research and reading that we all naturally expect and joyfully embrace. Although I dont reload currently, I have the equipment needed and intend to reload. Things that matter: Accurate, packable and reliable. Purpose: Large Deer, Elk and anything in the lower 48. Where am I at: I have narrowed the rifles to the ones below and must make a decision by July 5th. I have decided on the 300WSM mostly due to short action benefits. My understanding is that I may have issues if over 180 grain bullets are wanted or needed. Savage Model 10 Predator (the all brush camo), no accustock. They do exist although not in the catalog. $600 Savage Model 10 Max-1. $860 Sako Tecomate. $1100 I have Tikkas, Winchesters, Remingtons, Rugers and Savages. Of the three above what are your thoughts? I am leaning towards the Sako. My uncle has already told me to man up and get a 300 Roy. His opinion is that since I dont own a 300 mag now, and I intend to reload, costs to shoot is marginally more and the 300 Roy is more versatile. I am open to to 300WM Sendero or 5R as well, I just hate the stocks, palm swell to big...I like the old SF stocks, seemed better for hunting to me. Have a great July 4th. If your veteran or have veteran or active duty family member, thank you for your service, dedication and sacrifice. N [/QUOTE]
