[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1552494, member: 30902"] There are a lot of "Great Writers" like Chuck Hawks who would tell you that the .300 Rum and other rounds with similar case sizes are totally unnecessary and extreme overkill for any NA game. Most of them have apparently done very little actual hunting however or they are guys who make perfect shots every time on every animal with whatever they are shooting and certainly have little or no actual experience when it comes to LR hunting. The .300wm and wsm are more than adequate for any game in NA but the added energy and flatter shooting of the Rum gives you a margin of error and range the other two simply cannot compete with. The Rum isn't a gun you're likely to enjoy shooting a hundred rounds out of on a trip to the range but you'll certainly appreciate it the first time you pull the trigger on a large/heavy bodied animal at 500 yards or more.
