IMO Ruger is a fine rifle, If recoil isn't an issue for you you will love the cal. It's not a gun your going to run a couple of boxes of ammo through in one sitting.Or least want to. What are you planning to mainly hunt with it? Is see your from AR, is this going to be a whitetail rifle?
If so you could downsize some,as the 300's are more of a Big Game cartridge Elk Moose ect... Not what i consider an all around caliber. But it is a flat and long distance shooter.Also ammo is pricey for it.

well, thats just it. I do want an all around rifle for game such as: deer, elk, moose, caribou, bear. The moose and caribou are not here in arkansas, but the elk, deer and bear are. I would also like it for shooting some pesky hogs.

That's a great gun and caliber. You should be able to get a lot of game with it.
