Re: .300 Blackout or .357

300 blk.- flatter shooting, extra mags, wide range of sights, durable package,and is real scary
to Dianne Finestien!
357 - slimmer, no mags to deal with, load as you shoot, wide range of ammo,and looks sweet

Re: OT Differences in Bolt Actions by Savage Ruger Remington

If you're friend is stuck on a bigger cartridge just get a rifle that fits well, is a little heavier than most,
put a quality recoil pad on, maybe a muzzle break, even get a mercury tube installed in the butt.Properly
set up it should not hurt to fire it. A 7mm-08 set up this way would be a pussycat.
