i agree , no such thing as over kill . if you can handle the kick , go with the 300 . i like the 7mag better though . i hunted with a Ruger and a Rem 7mag for a long time till i started hunting out of pop-up blinds now i'm loving a h&r single shot 35 whelen .

i done some shooting with a browning 300 and felt like it kicked less than the ruger 7mag i have .
