what the hell, I'll use my first post to add my .02 to this discussion...
a few years ago I was deciding on an elk rifle and I chose the Kimber 8400 Montana in .300 WSM; my brother went with a Sako in .30-06. I love my Kimber. He loves his Sako.
Both will more than do the trick, but you can probably guess where my vote would go.
