    You say its a 10m-600m rifle so i suspect it will be you're everyday all purpose rifle and will be carried a fair way. Personally i wouldnt be getting a 300 win mag for what you describe but if you are content on it then i would not put a brake or suppressor on it and just shoot it. Suppressor will be to heavy imo and if you are using it for close range work no chance for hearing protection with the brake.
    I have my .243 for my bush hunting but was after a tops rifle, so was pretty keen on the .300winmag as I've read alot of good stuff on it out to longer distances but that doesnt mean when you pop your head over a ridge or into a gully there isnt an animal standing there looking at you. I was looking at Senderos but will probably pass as they would be the best part of a 20lb rifle all set up and thats way to heavy for me, so was now looking at Tikkas.
