[QUOTE="340Wby-4-everything, post: 1545559, member: 47425"] What you didn't say and no one else asked, what are you planning to hunt? If smaller than elk, .308 will do anything you want with low recoil and huge availability of ammo, even more than 300Win. If elk included, moose, black bears, 300 Win is the obvious choice. If you throw in the Big bears (brownies) and some African plains animals, then you could also consider 300 Wby. All three of these, will allow you to find plenty of ammo for them almost everywhere. To someone's point, 300 PRC may have good backing and in 20 years who knows, but for now, I have never seen it on a shelf in any store local to Denver (including Cabelas and Basspro) or any other areas of Colorado, Virginia or Idaho. Best of luck, .30 cal is as good as they come for most stuff. [/QUOTE]
