Default Which New Toy

Trying to make up mind on which new rifle to buy. Keep in mind I have many .30 caliber rifles along with both larger and smaller rifles. So which should it be
Winchester model 70 feather weight in .300WSM OR
Remington model 7 SS in .300 short UM.
I just like these two guns anyone delt with these rifles in these calibers yet??
Thanks

well if you want a 30cal. short magnum..
i would go with the 300WSM. just because there are alot more people buying th 300WSM's and they will last alot longer than the 300SAUM.
if you have alot of 30 calibers. what about the 270WSM? or wait till 2003 to see if they come out with the 35WSM and the 6.5WSM?

My choice would be the Model Seven! I own several 7's and they are hard to beat...<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

My answer to this question would be to ask you another question. What do you expect this new rifle to do that one of the many other 30 caliber rifles or other rifles that you already own won't do?

dont worry i always try to get people to handgun hunt. i think the sport needs more people in it. its is nice though, its not extremly long range but is a nice balance between the rifle and bow. and while a bow might be harder to shoot. the deer in my neck of the woods will walk through my backyard up till the start of gun season
