I'm stewing with the idea of dumping the bucks into a KDF or McMillan and figure I won't ever have any money for the rest of my natural life after that, so I need to make one caliber do it all. (except brown bears) Which of the following would you choose and why? .25-06 .270 .280 .30-06 .7mm Rem Mag .300 Win Mag .300 Wby .300 H&H .338 Win Mag .340 Wby .375 H&H .416 Rem Any inputs anyone has on any of the .300's would be appreciated. -Joseph Crunk
