They definitely both have their strong points, I've heard of customer support complaints from MRC, but not with any of their new production rifles, and they are made in the USA with a familiar action. Ive shot a browning Abolt 338 win mag and the recoil wasn't any where near what I thought it would be. Weight wise, these most likely wouldn't n my choices for a sheep hunt anyway, having better cartridges for the job.
