To me, guns are like pizza. I like all varieties, just some more than others. I guess I look at the uber magnum decision from the standpoint of what I need. Go up in power and you go up in recoil. All other things equal, you generally go up in price and weight. Do you need a 300 uber mag to shoot mule deer at 400 yards or less? Probably not. You can get that done with a270. Certainly a 7mm mag. If what you need to do requires an uber mag, get it. If you just want one for the cool factor, get it anyway.
