On game I could never see a lick of difference between them,but "like" the Weatherby a bit better.
Nice long neck,fewer magazine constraints and since "most" 300 Wins are built on abbreviated (blocked) H&H actions,I figured why not use up the length?
Plus the 300 Weatherby with some factory and handloads will really make the chronograph chime.....from the 26" barrel of a rechambered pre 64 H&H,the Weatherby factory stuff did over 3400 fps with the 165 BT.....and there is something satisfying about a 200 gr Partition or AB at over 3000 fps....that'll work!
I handled a M70 yesterday recently rebarreled by Gene Simillion in an Echols stock and it ws about as nice a 300 Weatherby as I have had in my grubby mitts.It isn't mine but frankly I can't wait to shoot it....at least a little.That stock will make it manageable.
