[QUOTE="375fan, post: 1036264, member: 24835"] Based on what your going to use rifles for, of the 3 you mention I recommend you go with the 300wm. I have 3 300wm and 2 300rum in varying configurations. With a good brake on a 300wm recoil won't be bad at all. You can shoot long distance , out to 1000+ with the 300wm no problem. I like my 300rum with 28in barrel but it is a dedicated long range rifle , have a 300rum ( factory Winchester)with light weight 26in barrel, whatever it can do my one 300wm with 25in #4 barrel can do just as well. Cost and availability of components make 300wm cheaper to shoot too. As someone who has been to Africa twice and I have killed 3 cape buff, let me say you will need a 375 caliber at the least for buff, (40 cal up is little better choice in case things get hairy) 375 is legal minimum in Africa for buff.i [/QUOTE]
