[QUOTE="ATH, post: 242124, member: 1656"] It will run them close to the regular 300WM if and only if you have the gun throated for the 200-210gr bullets. Otherwise you're going to cut into your case capacity and not get as high of velocities. Even if you have a gun throated for the lighte bullets, it will be great to at least 1000 yds with a 180gr bullet. The 300 WSM is a great cartridge, especially if built into a custom rig that eliminates some of its potential shortcomings (see above). I don't know about the double the barrel life of a 300WM thing, this is the first I've heard of that. I may just be out of the loop though, I don't own a 300 WSM yet. If I were to build a lightweight carry gun for elk right now, it would be 300 WSM. I shoot a 300WM but only because I'm still in shape to carry a Sendero over anything. [/QUOTE]
