[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 362556, member: 505"] All of those are great rifles. The 300 ultramag barrel life would probably be about similar to the 7mm stw. I have five 7mm stw's and three 300 ultramags. I don't know how many rounds they have shot but they all still shoot good. The 300 short mag is excellent and will give tremendous barrel life. If you intend to shoot this rifle a bunch I like that choice. For a long range hunting rifle for all around hunting of big game that includes elk size critters I would do the 338 ultramag. It has the same performance as the 338-300 ultramag you call edge and will work better with your action. They both shoot 225 grain bullets near 3300 fps, 250 grain bullets around 3100 fps and 300 grain bullets 2800-2900 fps. These two are the top performers at long range game with your action. If you don't intend to hunt elk size stuff there are a bunch of choices. [/QUOTE]
