[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 54005, member: 12"] The WSM is very accurate, but no more so than a 300 Win Mag in equal set up. More 1000 yard matches have been won with 300 win than almost any other cartridge. The big advantage the WSM has is that it is a short action cartridge, versus long action for the 300 Win with virtually idential ballistics and no belt on the case. That makes it very fashionable and practical for hunting guns. Just working and testing a few loads today with a Coyote in 300 WSM and most were under .5 at 100 with 190 berger and H4350. The WSM will really top out at 210-220 gr bullets with most rifles and in my opinion is best at 190 and under, but every one has an opinion. The advantage the 338 has it can go up to the 250 gr rather easily. Different calibers and different roles. BH [/QUOTE]
