The .300 Win. Mag. has been my favorite all-around hunting cartridge for the last ten years. I've used it on everything from Coues deer to elk and moose, and from Damaraland dik dik to Patterson's eland. It's never let me down, and I swear by it. Just about everything I've shot with it has gone down right away, and for some reason it's just been a very lucky round for me--sort of my own personal trademark cartridge, in a sense. If I had only one cartridge to select for the balance of my hunting career, it would be a .300 Win. Mag., no question about it.

I read an interview with Weatherby Award winner James Mellon recently, and in that article Mellon stated that he had literally taken all of the world's big game with a .300 Win. Mag., and if you know anything about Mr. Mellon, you know that takes in some considerable territory.

My local friend, Dr. Gerald Warnock, is another Weatherby Award winner who has also taken nearly all of the world's big game species with a .300 magnum, only his choice is the .300 Weatherby. He's been shooting the same rifle for over forty years, and he's gone through at least five barrels on that rifle! A very, very smart and capable man, and a succcess in everything he has set his hand to.....

Come to think of it, lots of award-winning, globe-trotting hunters have relied very heavily on .300 magnums over the last fifty-some years. Most of these guys are more into hunting than guns, and they want a reliable rifle that meets most requirements without a lot of fuss or second-guessing.
