[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2376185, member: 25831"] Price alone for a Magnum would send me to another 300 WM. But if not for hunting and effective longer range killing...go with less. Doubt you could hear the difference in the ding of the gong, but you might not be able recover fast enough to see it with a bigger cartridge. Targets are not affected by the cartridge shooting them. 308/30-06 built right with a heavy 200/215gr bullet will kill steel all day long without the cost. Easy components, good long barrel life, yada, yada...Other cartridges as well, but not as easy on barrel life. Hunting performance and target performance are viewed different by me. But that's just it...by me... EDIT...I can't believe I posted this. I must becoming a grown up...Go big or don't post about shooting bigger and badder on a budget...🤣🤣🤣 [/QUOTE]
