Well, do I? I mean I own some "obsolete" calibers like the 308 and a caliber .30, model of 1906.
But I don't have any magnum rifle calibers. Should I buy one?

Is this going to be used for hunting? If so, what's the intended range? And how heavy a rifle are you planning to shoot it out of?
if i get a 300 WM its going to get the TBAC can on the end of it. because thats how i usually roll. everything suppressed. i was flirting with a 338 lap but id need to wait another year or more for the can to come in for it.
300 wm works, but why not a 300 prc or other easy button long range caliber?
You're going to buy a factory rifle and Factory ammo or going to get a custom rifle with reload?
What is your criteria?

I reload all my .300WM too. It's just if I'm on a hunting trip in Alaska and something happened to my ammo and I need a box of cartridges I can get them at a gas station. They're not going to have 300PRC or RUM, but if they sell ammo they will have .300WM. It's not going to be perfect like my handloads, but it will be close enough with a few rounds to zero.
I don't shoot rifles unsuppressed anymore. There's a TB9 on my .300WM. The recoil is not bad at all, but its bad enough that I can't spot my own shots through the scope.
As someone mentioned, if you're going to go with a belted magnum, I'd pick 7mm Rem Mag over 300 WM; brass/ammo is just as commonly available, and grain-for-grain, the 7mm projectiles fly better. Of course, the lastest crop of 30 caliber heavies have no equivalent in the 7mm, but IMO those projectiles are better used in a 300 Norma Mag or 300 RUM. The capacity of the WM case just isn't there to get them much about ~2800 FPS unless you're running a 28+ inch barrel.
300 prc. Longer barrel life and new cartridges generally = better factory ammo due to less old sloppy chamber guns in circulation...

That all I got to say in this matter. So, if you hear what I am laying out there, get a .300 win mag, especially if you canoe in the bathtub.

Or go 300 Norma
The way that kind of thing works is that the smaller case can run with the larger case up to a point... running light/medium-for-caliber projectiles, the smaller case is right there; look at .308 Win and 30-06 for another example of this. It's not until you get into the heavy-for-caliber projectiles that the capacity of the larger case starts to shine.7mm Mag is just so inefficient though. Barnes reloading materials are showing similar velocities (171grs at ~2,850 FPS out of 24” barrels) between .280AI and 7RM but with ~6 more grains of powder in the 7RM — more than a 10% increase. Just not worth the blast, recoil and barrel life when the .280AI does the same thing IMO.
Yes, two, a light or med hunter and a kit for your mrad.
A Barrett MRAD, you could use an AI IF YOU LIKE those better.well, i do already use miliradians so thats a plus!
Your papers, please?? It is un-American not to have at least one .300WM. Thread ended.Well, do I? I mean I own some "obsolete" calibers like the 308 and a caliber .30, model of 1906.
