[QUOTE="ol mike, post: 217556, member: 4683"] Montanarifleman , All three cartridges are based on the same case ,there are the typical small differences like there are w/ the 30-06 case parent cartridge. The reason the dakotas aren't more popular is because it takes opening up the boltface of a magnum boltface to except the .545" dakata case.Whereas the ultra-mag and wsm's are based on a rebated case design -> same case made smaller at the bottom. Lapua brass -in a case that fits much better in a long action receiver than the ultra mag or stw case -what's not to like. You can go to -steves pages cartridge drawings- and look at the case dimensions and many others...Good luck -Mike [/QUOTE]
