    The short answer is yes buy it, the 300 Win Mag is like a 3006 on steroids. It is super efficient near and far. I have a Tikka in 300 Win Mag and if I could only own one rifle that would be it. My current load is a 200 gr ELD X at 2900 fps and it's accurate. Mine isn't suppressed but has a limb saver pad on it and it is fine to shoot, probably a bit much for a big range session but to sight in and hunt with no problems.When you place a bullet in the right place the animal will go nowhere but down.
