[QUOTE="liltank, post: 310562, member: 13275"] Advantages are the ability to push heavier bullets at much better speeds. For instance, looking at a reloading manual we see the following: 300 WSM Reloader 19 68.2grns. 180 grain pointed boat tail bullet= 2952fps 30-06 Reloader 19 58.3 (Compressed Charge) 180 grain Boat tail bullet=2698fps Now you can see the difference with identical bullets and the same powder. If you shoot factory ammo you are still going to get an increased performance from the 300WSM. These numbers are grossly under par with which they are able to achieve. They have to load light because of lawyers, but there is still a significance in velocity between the two calibers comparing powder and bullet weight. Tank [/QUOTE]
