Bingo!
From the recoil tables it looks like the 300 kicks a little more than I want.
And it's more expensive than other rounds I use at the range.
But what the heck, I plan on enjoying my new gun.

But... in the final analysis, it's your rifle and your decision to make. That said, I believe you'll find it VERY rewarding to hand-load for your .300 Savage and I am confident you'll find it an excellent deer cartridge as well as a fine cartridge for "hogs" and black bear.
Ok... 'nuff said.
Strength & Honor...
