I wouldn't have a 338 Win Mag with any sort of break, just not needed for me. That said, I have Ruger MKII 338 that is my serious rifle. One thing I like about the Rugers is the reputation, which matches my experience, in being super dependable and hammer tough! That rates quite highly for me. Phil Shoemaker has reported on their dependability/toughness as well and I doubt any of us are ever going to put as much pressure on a rifle in a decade as he does in one season. So, in the end the reputation for toughness of the Ruger over the other two models you list would greatly sway MY decision on which to pick. My Ruger will keep 3 shots inside 1.5" at 100yds, which I feel is more than accurate enough for a big game rifle. YMMV...
