Don't think you can go wrong with an X-Bolt or an A-Bolt.

If you want to go first rate step up to a 300WM in a Remmington R5 mil spec.

Can't wait til Santa lets me shoot my new 300 WSM. Been in the safe for a month, but Santa said if I touch it she will cut my arms off.

i wont argue that, but i will say that in the end my 270gr bullet out of my .375H&H will kill a deer extra dead and so will a 55gr bullet from my 22-250. |

" Extra dead..." |

Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.
There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living |

its all relative to the size of bullet you use. the bigger the bullet, the higher the degree of "extra dead" you get.

My opinion if it counts for anything is if your stuck on getting a 300 win variety I would advise to get a standard 300 wm before a wsm or the remington version. WSM ammo is more expensive than the regular 300 wm and the performance difference is nil from what I have read. I dont own either but my friend has a savage in 300 wsm and its just too expensive to shoot. He spends 15 bucks more per box than I do for my .30-06. I can get a box for as low as $17 bucks, the cheapest 300 wsm around here is around $34. Thats when I buy factory ammo. I reload for range sessions as the factory ammo I have tried does not shoot nearly as well as my loaded ammo.
If it were me I would stick with the trusty 30-06
