Gotta throw the .338 Lapua in there just for good measure. I'm going to own a .338-378 wby some day, so I'm biased. I'm kind of into the Wby calibers too, so I'm biased again. Between the two you mentioned, I'd have a .340. But you know, Weatherby's are belted, have too much freebore, not accurate, yada, yada, yada.

You really need to work on that group a little there.  I think you could tighten it up just a bit...

Good shooting, trigger...
Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.

There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living
