[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 1170005, member: 88320"] I had both and sold the 300wm if favor of the 338rum. My take on them is both need at least 26 in barrel both need to have a muzzle break and both need something close to a sendero contour at minimum. So both are bigger heavy guns so why not go with the bigger of the two. Once you shoot a big 338 at distance it kinda feels like your cheating it's sooo nice. 300 grains with high bc really makes a difference with wind. If your call is off a few mph hardly it's noticed. But 338 Rum is 25 grains more powder, bullets are more, brass is hard to come by, or pay Near $3 a piece for nosler. I bet barrel life is less on the rum too. at the same time one can never go wrong with 300wm. This is about wants over needs. Go BIG [/QUOTE]
