Jeff:

The 300 Win. is the logical move. I have been considering this caliber in a Dakota 10. The 30-338 was a "toy" idea. Non-Factory ammo doesn't bother me. I get most of my ammo loaded by Superior in South Dakota so it would just be another box or so of ammo from them.

I have had lots of experience with the 300. The Weatherby round burns out throats too quick for me. I shoot a bunch and have had some Weatherbys in the past.

Actually, if going to a 300, the Dakota round is a good one.

Thanks
