[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 1593632, member: 91402"] I started with a .300 WBY in a custom P17 Enfield action and hunted successfully with it for fifteen years or so. The barrel started to wear out and I switched to .300 Win because it was cheaper to find good barrels in that calibre. I loaded the same bullets and when I was finished with the crono I was getting the same velocities I had achieved with my Weatherby - about 3200 fps with a 180 gr Nosler Part. and I won't tell you how much R22. They both had 26 inch barrels, but the .300 Win was stainless. Since then I can't see any reason for going back to a Weatherby. [/QUOTE]
