[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 217094, member: 4191"] [b]Free-for-all[/b] Loaded to the same pressures, I believe the 7mm RM and the 300 WM will shoot as fast, or faster with the same bullets out of same length barrels as the 7mm WSM and the 300 WSM. I expect others will jump in with the finer points and opinions and we'll have a free-for-all before this has run its course. Yes, if you reload cartridges in the 7mm RM and the 300 WM to 58,000 to 61,000 psi and load the 7mm WSM and 300 WSM to 65,000 psi, the WSMs may shoot a little faster. But I think there's not a knat's *** difference if the cartridges are loaded to equal pressures - which is basically what Frank21 said. And since Lapua and RWS don't make 300 WSM and 7mm WSM brass (to my knowledge), one might be further ahead with the 7mm RM or 300 WM. Pretty sure RWS makes 7mm RM and 300 WM brass. I've got some RWS 7mm RM brass and I've read RWS continues to manufacture 300 WM brass. [/QUOTE]
