[QUOTE="mwkelso, post: 1928912, member: 110880"] FWIW- You might play around with a ballistics calculator to compare the three calibers in question. I have a .270 and was in a situation similar to yours. After comparing the ballistic advantages of the 7rem mag and the 300 win mag over the .270, I opted for the 300wm. Range was a major consideration for my situation. My .270 is great out to 5-600, but I needed more thump than the .270 could give beyond that distance. The 300wm could get me there with 210’s and 215’s, the 7rem mag could not. The 11” twist though... definitely something to consider. Maybe a future rebarrel with a 9”?
