    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    I went with a 7 Rem Mag as I already had Redding dies.

    If you can’t decide, combine the two and get a 7mm-.270 WSM
    Much better range of projectiles with better BCs (if that matters to you).

    .......or a 7mm-.300 WSM if you want a longer neck.
    You could build a shorter, lighter, more efficient rifle than a long magnum.
