When we get into the 'only one' discussion, all sorts of 'if you need' one thing, something else is better, anecdotes. It's always true. '06 is better than a Whelen, but a Whelen does 180-200 grains almost as fast as a 300, with fatter bullets. Same can be said on the 300 vs 284....given one needs to shoot 450+, through wind, all sorts of things make some stuff 'better' than alternatives that work just fine under 450. If a guy can get to 300, how does the 300 stack up to many other rounds burning less powder? All sorts of angles. 300 might be the 'best' one caliber one day, and not the next, while the 'get it done' theory opens up plenty of alternatives for internet debates. grin grin
