I think you'll like the 300 WSM. For me I use 30/06 Model 700 LH-----scope is a Leupold VarX-III 2.5 X 8. I've been using this setup for 35 years. Never a problem on elk, deer, bear & hopefully a Shira's soon. I use 180 grain bullets for everything.

One word of advice is use a good bullet out of that 300 WSM---at those higher speeds a standard bullet may leave a little to be desired.

It depends on what and where I will be hunting. I match the gun/ammo combination to the task at hand. I am fortunate enough to have a decent selection to choose from.
