[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 56117, member: 12"] For hunting purposes, I think most people who pick the 300 RUM and other super mags in "hunting weight" guns suffer more in the accuracy department from recoil than flatness of trajectory. Within 10 shots, they flinch like hell and cannot hit the broad side of a barn, not matter how flat it shoots and how much energy it "dumps into the dirt 20 yards from the target". My 300 WSM is only 26 MOA up at 1000 while the supermags are 22 MOA from a 100 yard zero. One will knock the snot out of you in a hunting gun and down range energy is not that different out to 1000. Either will give you more than enough energy to kill an elk. Look no further than the used gun shelves that are littered with Sendaros in 300 RUM with 10 shots fired. BH [/QUOTE]
