OK my hunting buddy is dead set on replaceing his 308 with a 300 mag, he has shot them before and does not mind the recoil. He has been asking me about which mag I would recomend since I usualy handload for both of us. My Nosler manual has the old 300 win faster in almost every bullet weight, common sence would agree since the old school 300 has a larger case. Then there is the issue of the long belted mag vs the unbelted short action. I got rid of my belted mags before I started reloading, but have heard that the case life on the belted cases is shorter. I personaly don't put alot of stock in the short action being much more accurate, I think at hunting ranges one would be hard pressed to see any difference. All that said what would you guys reccomend for a power happy hunter.
