Since you are interested in long range target shooting, including hunting of all the North American game animals ---hands down ---the 300 Win Mag... is the way to go. The 300 Win Mag ammo, is alot cheaper than the 338 Lapua, has a longer range than 308 or 30-06, can be bought on storeshelves all over the world and reduced handloads are possible. Besides accuracy...the 300 Win Mag, is the most preferred cartridge for U.S. government snipers --- because of low recoil and low rifle weights.
