WOW find a lot to disagree with on this post.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First nothing wrong with a 30 Magnum........... Second in what you call a common 30 Magnum a 300 Weatherby and a 308 Norma Mag how are they easier to reload for than a 300WM ?????????? pretty much same O same O, unless you have a unicorn hypothesis you need to make us aware of ?????????????
Short neck and unnecessary recoil ?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!..........are you kidding me, the weatherby has a several grain advantage in powder capacity AKA more recoil
Spot On!!
Two Considerations: All 300s DON'T weigh the same.
More weight = less felt recoil / Less weight = more felt recoil
All stocks DON'T fit everyone ! Stock fit or UNfit can make a WORLD of diff.
