[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1359534, member: 97414"] I think what happens is that sometime we see the new and improve what ever, this is good as it means we're paying attention. Most of us middle age to past middle age have taken advantage of changes towards bigger is better. Yes the 30 Nosler is up towards the top of the food change,,, but so is the RUM. Even the 300 Weatherby is some where in the mix along with that old 338 Winchester. I think its awesome that these cartrages are out there, but I'd like to put this out there. Would this incress be a huge improvement,,, maybe a good size jump, or just a fraction. So to speak. If I still owned my 300 Weatherby Mag, would I switch to the 30 Nosler,,, most likely not,,, why,,, simple. The 300 Whether has taken care of many critters around the world with ease. Sure it's not a Canon to the 403 Chytech or 338 L,,, but it is a Canon over a 270 and 30/06. I like most folks dabbled in many cartrages and rifles of the same calibers but different makes to the same makes with different calibers. Then one night I had a dream. This dream took me back to where it all started. The 30/06 canon over the 243. LOL. Less recoil, frugal brass, fun to shot, from critters to targets way past its capabilities. Of course critters up close that is. Don't get me wrong, the Nosler is one fine system,,, but so is the RUM along with all the other top 10 in the close category. When I jumped into F Class shooting this year, I got thinking that I really should of taken on the range approved 338 Lazzarony thing,,, then after shooting my first ever match I soon realized that a old school 308 Winchester 32" long barrel at 18 lbs would place me in the 3rd for bronze. Who-da thunk. I guess the 30/06 hunting rifle over the 308 F Class match rifle are pretty much neck and neck,,, but the 308 puts me into F-FTR as the Ought-6 would of sent me to F-Open. This would be bad for me as I'm just getting started. Anyways, I think what ever you choose will work, it's your plan as our input is just ideas,,, only you will decide what path your on. As for me, I left the magnum world to never return due to age and comfort zone. Old school, practical, frugal and endless days weeks, months, and yesrs shooting targets and game. All of us find what we're after,,, that's what really counts. Good luck on your quest of what ever it is. That's what really counts. Western Canada pal Don at frugal when I can find it. [/QUOTE]
