I'm a big fan of the 300 Win Mag but not the reloading cost for powder!

For what you want the 6.5CM or 260 rem etc is ideally suited mate. My 260 use to go pretty well with the 123 Amax out to 600 yards or so (unfortunately that rifle wouldn't stabilise anything heavier) but heavier will be better again if you want better performance in wind and more energy on target/animal.

I use Strelok+ but you can use the free version and it lets you input your own loads data

you 130 eldm table below same wind as before working on 2890 MV
hope that helps.
