If I were considering a 300 Win I'd want an M70 Featherweight but an Ultimate Shadow or Extreme Weather would be fine. The Nosler is a well made rifle, but a Stainless Howa would be just as great a choice.

I don't see how any of those rifles would be a bad choice, but unless it were a dedicated LR rig, I don't think I could justify not going with the Montana in 300 WSM. That is hands down the handiest package available. As a do-everything rig it would see a lot more use. It "feels like" about 1/2 the recoil of the Winny.

I have a lot of 300 Win brass too, but it was worthwhile buying 500 pieces of 300 WSM brass.

I think that may end up being a lifetime supply.


It ain't all burritos and strippers my friends...
