Thanks stubblejumper.

Thought I'd buy a 338wm next for moose and elk but haven't found anythingI like or want to spend in southpaw. Then along comes this Sally!!! How would you compare the 300rum to 338 wm? Main use moose and elk, at this point 300 yards would be considered the furthest shot I'd take in my hunting place. In fact most come 200 or under. Possibly would use for larger bear but really not top on my to do list, but a mild consideration. So really don't think I need a burner in terms of speed.

I do have a bummed shoulder which I have worked to regain so recoil is a consideration to an extend. I have shot both no doubt the rum has more health to its boot but all have come in right actions. I think my partners 280 RH kicks more than my 7mm rem mag and he thinks the opposite soI know how fit make a difference in the felt department.

Any way your well versed in the rums and rifles in general. What are your thoughts?

Stick tothe plan in my head or maybeswitch horses!!!

Of course I have not handled the LSS, so won't deciede till that happens but trying to determine if it is worth the drive. (5 hour round trip)
