[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1097472, member: 10755"] I think the OP has been reading too many magazine articles and interweb forums. I run Nosler 200gr Accubonds in my 300 WM, even at 3.34" there is ample case capacity, my rifle routinely gets 3100fps, yes, the loads are compressed, but it poses no major problems, just load 'em up before you hunt, don't leave them for months so the bullets have no chance to back out. Just FYI, the powder capacity of the WSM case is even less with long 200gr bullets seated out than the 300WM seated normally. If your rifle gets between 2850-2950fps with 200gr bullets, then this is normal per book data. I see no need to change anything, personally. Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
