[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 507367, member: 12"] Biggest advantage to the WSM is barrel life. We are getting 2-3x or more barrel life on the WSMs compared to the Win mag. Those are not powder puff loads either. Some WSMs have gone over 4000 rounds at top level competition. No win mag has ever gone 2000. the WSM shines with 210s and less. The factory rounds show the WSM actually beats the Win mag in those weights. Not by much and not enough to matter, but it does. I have 5 WSMs. Been shooting them since they came out for hunting and competition and not finicky at all. They love MRP, H4350 and RL 17 in lighter bullets. Standard primers are the best. The obvious difference is long action vs short action also. BH [/QUOTE]
