    Rem mag has more case capacity and seats the heavies in long throat long magazine Sakos.

    162-180 grainers at full chat are often more recoil than most can handle with high levels of precision. Add a muzz brake and suffer the concussion from the redirected gasses, add a suppressor and up goes the weight and down goes the portability of your “ lightweight”
    We already carry enough clutter and shit around to ruin the hunting experience, guys even wear camo when long range shooting

    You don’t need 190 grainers when the 180s sack reds and Sika at 1500yards, if you do need 190 grainers for the extra reach then the wind will stop you from harvesting 80% of the time, you then get closer and it’s a no problem shot with a rem mag

    You would have to be really sure your rifle shot the 190 grainers well before you went out and purchased a rifle to only shoot one projectile

    If you already have a rem mag I’d covet it and keep hunting
