All you need is the stuff to measure the range accurately (Lasers?) and then be able to adjust the sights. When you get to those ranges, you've got enough residual "umph" left on the bullet to decide absolutely any issue, wherein the 300 might not. In fact the last two deer I shot with a 300H&H , both at about 2-250yds, one ran 75 yds., the other ran 75yds to the fence, jumped over that fence and then ran an additional 75yds in the Forrest, both had the top of their hearts ripped off and both legs completely shot out from under them. This is something we'll never see with the 450b at any BC..
