[QUOTE="98s1lightning, post: 3062460, member: 129199"] Then what would I do with my 284win? Leave it at home and hunt with the 325wsm all the time? for real; I don't want to fill a no-need void. My thoughts on the 284win 150gr@2800, was that, it so close to a 280 which I think most people trust their lives to even in big bear country. Am I splitting hairs here? I know a 180 or 200gr 8mm @2800 and a 150gr 7mm@2800 ain't comparable as far as hard hitting power goes......But for Northeast Hunting I think I'm covered I think the 325 for me is a just "to get it" gun. From a tools perspective, for a maybe someday go West Hunting where there's big bears......happening no time soon for me. I'm conservative. I don't want things I don't need. Would you walk into the backcountry out West with a 284win and feel undergunned? I doubt it, I see lots of people going with one, or 308win or 7mm-08 even. I think its all interesting for sure.
