all my shot are one shot kills. plus i just whached a guy i was guiding shoot a elk 6 times with a 7mm wsm she ran 100 yards and had to put her down with my 300 wsm.How about a ONE-SHOT kill at 1159 yards with a 7mm WSM & 162 gr A-Max? You call it luck I call it skill, you say it's BS I say it's BC.
I am in much the same place looking for a new rifle. I've found some good info on the fed fusion website they have a comparison chart on there that you can compare different cals. and loads on. of course this is their ammo but it will give you an idea of how the Wsms line up with other cals. Based on this and other research I am going with the 7mm wsm. But to each his/her own. Thats why there are different flavors of pie. Some like chocolate and some pecan and then some just don't like pie. gun)Good Luck and Good HuntingCurrently I am shooting an older 7mm REM in need of an upgrade. I have been looking at the .300 WSM, but the old 7mm shoots so flat it's hard to change. This addition to the family would be for Elk and long range groundhogs.
