Default ...and again 300 WM vs 338 WM !!

Ok, here is the thing:

I am toying with the idea of getting a Tikka T3 lite synthetic as a Mountain, Moose & Bear rifle.

The calibers I am looking at are 300WM and 338WM.
Since the Tikka is pretty light, I am wondering if a 338WM in such a light gun would be overkill, with a recoil thats not fun to shoot anymore (I dont have a recoil issue, but it should not kick like a mule to the point where its annoying).

Any experiences or insights ???

From the thread, it looks like the numbers of supporters for 300 WM vs 338WM is pretty evenly split, but if you throw a lighter gun into the mix...??
