-Commercially available, right now;
-Heavier;
-Advantages (theoretical?) of a true magnum action;
-Proprietary/unique parts (e.g., trigger)
-Horrendous stock.
Whitworth:
-Have to hunt up a used one (not too hard);
-Lighter;
-Ready to scope with off-the-shelf mounts;
-Uses many standard Mauser parts/accessories (e.g., Timney trigger);
-Usable stock from the factory.
Anything else?
The Whitworth (zastava) is disappointing in these same areas. There are better mausers available.
