Ive owned a few, and shot a fair few, currently have .17 HMR, 22 mag, 222 Remington mag, .264 win and 300H&H, 300 win, most in Canada were there is perhaps more need, due to biting, clawing critters.
Only have a 22 mag and .264 win in NZ, I think the most useful, of the magnum center fires, is the 30 cal mid size (300wsm, 300 win, 300H&H) and the 375H&H, but these are unnecessary , heavy for NZ.
I really like my 300 H&H, I've had two now, Ruger #1 and M700, 165gr partion at 3150, and 220gr partion for a stopping round,
