RE: Best .300 magnum?
 
For a Colorado Mule Deer hunt I bought a .300WSM.I shoot Federal ammo and they offer the same number of load choices for both .300WSM and .300WM.I went with the .300WSM because it produces the same ballistics as the .300WM with less recoil. As posted earlier, If I want .300RUM or .300WBY power, I'll shoot the .338 so I can also shoot 180gr-250gr bullets.

I looked at several rifles and went with the Rem Model 700 Stainless SPS. I couldn't justify anotehr $200 for the Model 700 XCR when I don't hunt near salt water. The WBY vangard stainless is butt ugly!

I have seen this topic before and it always goes this way. Someguys are happy with the old wm, some guys like the new ultra mags. I have shot the300s and like them all! They all have there pros and con,and everyone who has a favorite will back it too the end. I like the rum but not becauseI think it is so much better than the wm. It just makes alittle louder bang andkick! I like that

I dontthink there is a clear cut best .308 mag. Everyone is going to have preferences and their own opinions. I have a few to choose from......300 Win, 30-378 Wby Imp, 300 WSM, .308 Norma and 300 Wby.The later is what I use the most. Is it the fastest? no, is it the prettiest? no it's just my favorite of the bunch.
