I never had a .300. I have hunted Big game for thirty years or more. I used to use a lever action Winchester 30-30, but I finally switched to a Remington 30-06 BDL. I did not like it's grouping and I heard about the Tikka T-3 Lite. So I bought one in a 30-06 and fell in love with it. I even went out and bought another in a .270. After last season, I got my CC permit, and I needed a CC pistol, so since I needed a different weapon, and I could only shoot one rifle at a time, I flipped a coin and sold the .270. Almost cried, because both Tikka's got me some nice Elk and many Whitetails so I hated to part with it. I never was able to decide which caliber worked best, but the 30-06 held tighter groups with 180 grain ammo, so I am OK with that choice. Lot's of choices too.
