[QUOTE="pyroducksx3, post: 575213, member: 20443"] I have heard the opposed. As far as I'm aware the stw actually has a little freebore which causes significantly faster erosion and was a great factor for a member here creating the 7mm practical (7-300 win mag with modified shoulder I believe).You can narrow the choices by establishing your preferences. Short action Id say 7 wsm better available brass/ammo. Long I'd say 7 RM better barrel life. In regards to your question on elk with the right bullet (160+ vlds) you can take elk out to 800 but you are at the outer limits, still not unethical but still approaching the limit, if you want the longest range the stw gets the nod.
