I think you really have to look at just what the average sporting rifle is capable of these days before you go dragging some big heavy bastard of a thing around the hills. Have had a play with the exact rifle you are talking about (Rem700 LR in 300winmag) and it was a heavy bugger, probably ok if you were only target shooting or hunting with a quad etc but I wouldn't want to cart one round the hills for a day.
