My 72 year old hunting partner did the same thing this year. Went from a 300 to a 280... much lighter rifle. We shall see what he thinks of it.
I’m 69, la la la la.... I don’t wanna hear that !!!
I’ve not owned a 300 Wby, but for some inexplicable reason I have had an
“Irrational affection” for the 300 Win Mag. I’ve had several and actually I owned an OG 77
300, before I owned any 7 RM.
I have killed quite a few WT with my 70 Black Shadow. My 2 largest WT, 1 heaviest body, &
1 largest racked buck plus several others.
Literally I hate to think of NOT owning and NOT hunting it.
Irrational, yes. It is what it is.
Bighorn I really hope you find satisfaction w/o your Bee.
