I would go the 300 win mag as it is still overkill but you would be at least able to shoot it on any range that has a 8mm projectile limit. Although I don't think any of the big caliber magnums would go that well in a Tikka super light

Slippery heavy enough projectiles going fast. What's not to like

I have one of those in 7-08...when stuffed full of 2209 & a 120/140gr holding it all in, most people take one shot and say thanks--not liking the recoil...
I cant imagine shooting a well loaded magnum in a superlite...
Maybe Im just a scardeecat...!

Ruger are cheap junk.
Wouldn't take one for free after my last experience.
Spent more time sending it back for repairs than shooting it.
All I heard was how unusual it was for a ruger to have a problem...junk
I prob should have mentioned I fractured my clavicle in four places last year. So I wanna go a little punchy but maybe not quite 375 H&H.
