I'm not a fan of the 30 cal short mags. They lack the ability to launch the heavier bullets at the same velocity as a standard 300 win. A standard 300 mag has the ability to use the 190 and even 200 gr bullets, and you lose that ability somewhat with the shorter cases. A 300 win mag with 190 grain bullets truly is in a class by itself. Between the two you list, I second the fact that the 300 wsm will far outlive the rsaum. Nothing worse than having a gun you can't find ammo or brass for.

I have shot most of the .300 Mags, and I still say that for performance vs recoil, Win Mag is the optimum. Those few hundred fps's you gain from the 'super' magnums really pay a price on your shoulder. That said, handloading give all the magnums a range of performance that allows you to use them for any type of hunting you want. Truly a one gun for everything rifle.
