It sounds like your alot like me, you don' t really need a new rifle, you just want a new rifle. I guess my wife wouldn' t understand you either! If you already have a 243 and a 300, you have everything covered now. That means you don' t necessarily have to go the practical route. It may sound stupid, but I say get the one that seems the coolest to you! Ever since the sort mags came out, I' ve wanted one, and to me the 270wsm is the most interesting. If your considering one, I would say go for it!
