OK I get it

Then buy 300 and see how you like it.

I've used both. The 300 will recoil more and provide additional speed, shoot flatter (depending on your loads),and the rifle will be heavier. If you try to put together a 300 that is as light as a 30/06 you will get slapped around.

Some days it will be hard to tell which one kills better.

I have used the cartridge on some bull elk to over 400yards and it is a great killer.

Used the 30/06 out to about 300 yards. Nothing got away.

When I was in that mode I found a 270 and a 300 win mag a great combo. Many of my friends still use it.

The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
