[QUOTE="grit, post: 676616, member: 4112"] To be completely frank, these sort of things are based on "likes and dislikes, theories and ideas". I'll argue a point while completely conceding to an opposing opinion. I've achieved excellent results with the 7WSM and the 7-300. I like the 7WSM a lot. I build a lot more 7WSM's. The Norma brass is better. I spend twice as long prepping Winchester brass, still toss a quarter of it, and still throw out every piece of brass associated with a flier. It bothers me, every time. I don't save any money with the cheaper brass. You could form 7WSM brass, but then you're giving up barrel life to fireform. The longer neck protects the throat a little because the confluence of the burning gasses is well inside the case. It's a theory I subscribe to, nothing more. I have ideas of what case design should be. The 7-300 is very good. The 7WSM has a short neck :D. Why have "close" when I can have "just right". I believe the extra effort pays off in tighter velocity spreads, fewer fliers.... [/QUOTE]
