[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1522174, member: 41338"] Well, there's a ton of guys that claim some very impressive fps from their 300 WM's but my experience is that with a 200 gr. bullet and a 26" barrel, I get around 2900 fps on the upper end. Probably slower with an accuracy load. It's a pretty long case that does better with slow powders and long barrels. I wonder if you might get similar performance and a longer barrel with a 300 short mag. If my memory serves me, it's a shorter action, shorter/fatter case that likes faster powders. You just may significantly increase performance over a stubby Win Mag. [/QUOTE]
