[QUOTE="Andrew Massi, post: 2374024, member: 106096"] They fed terribly and had no practical advantage over a 243 Winchester. They actually had less case capacity than the 243 but higher pressure netted the wssm an inconsequential velocity advantages(60 fps adding 11 yards to maximum upset distance) If you wanted a 257 short mag just use the 270wsm or 6.5 saum(better brass options) case with your magnum bolt face or maybe even a 257 prc would get you to whatever velocity window your looking for. The wssm are perhaps the most ridiculous invention in gun development [/QUOTE]
