I hunted and packed a 300 Win mag for close to 25 years before moving up and around the .338 Win mag. I have a true love for the 300 Win mag, as it's real hard to beat in velocity pushing those 150, 165 and 180 grain bullets down range. It's accuracy is second to none for long range hunting.
If your looking to shoot long range on big game animals, the 300 Win mag is your caliber, unless you can handle the bone jarring 300 Ultra mag. However, the recoil from the Ultra mags is much more than 85% of the shooters hunters can handle and handle you must if your going to be accurate out to 500, 600 and 700 yards etc.
