Good lens but a little bit short

I bought this lens for replacing my 55-300mm pentax lens because I wanted to have a more faster and sharp lens. So far I am happy with this lens. My biggest concen was the focal length, it is 50mm shorter than the previous telephoto zoom. I could not deceide for a long time which lens I should buy either the zoom or the 300mm single focal lens. I thought 50mm is not a big difference but it is actually. If you want to take wild life, I would recommend the 300mm DA*. But it does not mean this lens is not good. This lens is very good lens for land scape, nature, portrait etc. One negative thing if I should put on here, the zoom ring is not continuaslly smooth. The middle of zoom area is slightly heavier. I looked at the Japanese cosumer site and found the same comment. But it is not a big deal to me.
