[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1311390, member: 7999"] The 325wsm has never really caught on but I think it is pretty good. I am not big wsm fan as bullets wind up in the powder column in order to fit the mag. Causing powder issues with compressed or having to use a faster powder because not enough slow fits, etc. We did custom ammunition for a client in his 325wsm Kimber rifle. We used our 221g Hammer Hunter and loaded RL-17 at 2825fps with very good accuracy. For this particular customer he was looking to hunt out to 500y and use his bdc reticle for holds. This in my opinion was a very nice light weight packing rifle for any big game animal out 500 yards or so depending ones ability to run ballistics. It was not much fun at the bench, but for a purposed light weight elk rifle, it was very good. Steve [/QUOTE]
