I have some trigger time with both of those, BC, mostly 225s out of the 338Winny and almost exclusively 200's out of the 300 RUM, both in rigs that go just over 9 lbs all up-in my opinion, the RUM kicks a bit harder, but not a bunch.
If you can shoot one, you can shoot the other.
And yes, the 3200 from my 300 RUM w/ 200gr NPs I see(over an Oehler Chrono) is from a 26" barrel.
