[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 2331498, member: 12443"] Well you might just be looking at the 300 WSM results and confusing them for 300 Win results. At Williamsport, the 300 WSM holds the 10 shot heavy gun world record group shot by a member here about 10 years ago. To my knowledge, there has never been a record held with the 300 Win Mag. On the other hand in the mid 80s, the late Earl Chronister set a 10 shot record using a 30x378 Wby with a rifle built by the late Howard Wolfe. And it is roughly only about 1” larger than the current record. So even back in the dark ages some excellant shooting was taking place, and much of it with Wetherby cartridges or ones having shoulder shape changes. Bruce Baer built several record guns for people like Frank Weber for example. His 308 Baer uses the 340 Wby case, as does his 284 Baer. [/QUOTE]
