.300 Win Mag has superior performance but for more money expenditure and punishing recoil. On paper, any of the magnums beat the standard cartridge.
A limbsaver kills the recoil problem.

The kicker with the .300 win mag is it's massive consumption of powder. It's using dang near double what the .308 uses. The brass is also more expensive. It's also harder on your barrel.

But yeah, it's a lot more fun to shoot IMO. It always gets people's attention at the range.

Personally, I'd opt for the 7mm mag or 7mm STW myself, but really, that is my own bias talking.
