Default .300 Win. Mag. or .300 WBY Mag.?

I'm sure you're all getting tired of my post about having a custom rifle built, but I still need some opinions on which caliber I'm going to go with.

I had originally settled on either the 7mm. Rem. Mag. or the .300 Win. Mag.

It seems like everyone I've talked to about choosing between these 2 calibers has said "What about the .300 WBY"?

The "general concensus" seems to be that if I'm going to build a .30 cal magnum, that the .300 WBY would be the way to go.

I know there's a great deal of cost difference in buying factory ammo, but I'm wanting to start reloading again anyway.

I'm curious how much difference there is in recoil between the WIN. and WBY. mags. in the same rifles.

Any input would be appreciated
