I’m sort of in your camp. I too have a .300 H&H, a pre-64 Model 70 Winchester, but my lever gun is a Winchester Model 71 .348.
Model 70 shoots best with my hand load, 180 grain Sierra boat tail and the 71 with a hand load using some early Barnes 250 grain.
With these two I think I’m equipped for most anything in North America.
