RE: 300 magnum
You really need to shoot a 300mag and determine if you like it. For me it took several boxes of ammo before I felt comfortable. I found that you should always (especially at the range) shoot from a straight sitting up position and not laying down forward on the bench. I normally don't shoot more than 15 or twenty rounds during one session. If I shoot a five-round group, I will spray the 4th or 5th ones to right. I can't say that shooting my 300mag is as pleasant as my 6mm or 270.
