I appreciate everyone's opinions here. I going to try and get a .338 winnie if I can sell my Weatherby. If anyone is interested in a Weatherby stainless sythetic for a good deal, let me know?

Don't be in a hurry to sell. You'll just get beat up on the price. Save up and buy a .338 if you have your heart set on one. Remember that the factory plastic stocks can be pretty crappy. Your Weatherby has a well built stock on it. If you just want a .338, fine. You will lose a fair chunk of change swapping out. For less money you could get into reloading, which is a hell of a lot more fun than going to We Be Guns 'n Shit to buy Factory ammo.
If you have to sell a very capable rifle to replace it one that is almost equally capable you need to be saving that money for a hunt.
If the recoil of the Weatherby is the issue, then go ahead and swap out. I find the recoil impulse of the .338 Win Mag to be mellower than the Weatherby. There is nothing in North America that you can't kill, and kill very cleanly with the Weatherby.
As Allen Day alluded to, the folks with a lot more money and hunting experience that you or I often buy a 300 Mag (WBY or Win), a 416 Rem Mag, and then go hunt the world. Whatever you do, let us know the outcome please.

I own all except the 416, in my opinion you never sell a firearm to buy another. Save and purchase the 338. I've shot the 338 and the 300 and see very little diffrence in recoil, but if you're shooting the 416 there is no question about recoil flinch. The 300 is flatter, but the 338 will create a larger wound channel. They both have their place, but I would never sell the 300 for a 338. I just got my 300 and haven't developed loads for it yet but with factory ammo it shot just a bit over 1 moa out of the box. I have a BOSS on the 338 and it shoots .25 moa because I've tuned the BOSS to the load. I would hate to have a firearm leave my possession. If you can save the money and wait until you can afford the 338, you won't be disappointed. One note the recoil on the 338 is negligable with the BOSS but I've shot it without the BOSS and I can't tell the difference between the 338 and the 300. Just my opinion!!!

I love the .338 and have shot a bunch of critters with it; certianly more than any of my .300 Mags. However, if I were you, I would keep the .300. I agree with AD that the .300 can kill just about anything.

For extended ranges, the .300 is unuequaled. I shoot mine at long ranges a lot and they are phenomenal. However, the .338 works pretty damn well too.

Elmer Keith is looking down, reading this and grinning like a monkey suckin' eggs. I've got to go along with everyone else, it's a super round. The .300 magnums for some reason beat the devil out of me, but the .338 for some reason, I find very managable in the recoil department. There is a wide selection of commerical ammunition available and you can shoot everything from the smallest deer to the largest we have in N. American, without blood shot meat, plus you get the extra penetration for the larger animals. Get one and you'll never regret it.
