A good article, thanks for posting Ripp.

Lets not forget the original Magnums were meant for very close up work with dangerous game. With this in mind the answer to the question is Yes.

In my younger days, when I shot a hell of a lot more than I do now, using a 308 and the 35Whelen I would shoot to 500mts, targets only. However if a 400mt shot presented itself I was confident and willing to take it. Sadly, not any more as I do not practice to those distances. 300mts is now my self imposed limit. Do I need a magnum for this. If a magnum is in my hands at the time then yes I do need the magnum for the shot, even if it is a rabbit.
