I suspect many who shoot the 300 Wby feel it is the perfect balance of the two sides

Thats a good way to describe the virtues of the 300wby

I loved my .300wby with 180s and loved my later purchase .338win with 225s,

but my choice nowdays would be neither of those!
instead it would be the .340wby with fast 200-210 monometals.

It really offers it all:: speed,momentum, flat shooting and raking shot penetration.
