[QUOTE="Couesnguns, post: 2204422, member: 65606"] I am having a 300 wsm 24" built on defiance xm action, throated for 215 berger in mind for elk. It depends on what you want this rifle to do, if for deer a 6.5 cartridge would be on the top of my list. I have a 6.5 SAUM and it shoots the 147/143 hornday amazingly. I have a 270 wsm and the best bullet I have found is the berger 170 eol so you are limited on the currently available high b.c bullets in the .277 class. More will probably come out due to the interest in the 6.8 western. A .284 class would be the best bet in my opinion. Should be able to spin up a high 180 class bc bullet no problem. 7 SAUM, 7-270WSM (brass availability over the 7 wsm) or 7SS with the ADG brass would all be good choices. [/QUOTE]
