[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 554067, member: 29890"] Guys I appreciate the replies, I have several 300wms 300wbys, a 7mm mag, a 257wby, and I fire form and let the should do the work as you mentioned, what has me unsettled is everyone always downing these, saying they are to small you should build a RUM or an EDGE or an AM. I saw an artical on the 300wby starting that it had been used on prarie dos to an elaphant and everything between, how's that to small, as for compensating for wind, mirage, spin drift, temp ect.... kevin you can correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the 300wn still hold the overall record for 1000yrd wins? Just trying to figure out everyones need to have a cartridge that has or exceeds there bullet weight in powder capacity, makes no sense, less accurate, cost more to reload, barrels may not last 500 rounds and for a small trade off, I'm just trying to figure out the logic behind this.
