[QUOTE="JW74, post: 1172243, member: 81323"] Brian, Thanks for the build specs, your rifle sounds awesome! I am relieved to hear that you aren't having any feeding issues with the long action. Do you find that the rounds slide forward at all in the magazine due to recoil? How much longer is the throat on your rifle compared to that of a standard 300 WSM? Also thank you to the others for their thoughts as well. I should sate that I am not against the 300 win mag at all. Mostly I wanted to try something a little different and after a lot of reading about the accuracy tendencies of the shorter, wider case of the 300 WSM I thought why not! This round seems to be very popular with the long range bench rest crowd these days. I figure if feeding issues aren't a problem in a long action then the 215 and 230 Bergers would be a great combo.
