[QUOTE="Mpvoigt, post: 12684, member: 218"] The 300WSM will certainly work for everything short of dangerous game. This is where I would rather have a larger case for the longer range shooting. 300 Win, 300 Weatherby, 300 Ultra or any of the wildcat rounds from 1000yd benchrest. Ease of loding accurate ammunition, great bullet selection and there are areas that lend themselves very well to long range hunting. For dangerous game, a plain old .375 H&H or if you have to... the .375 Ultra mag. I am not sure why the need for the extra 200fps. Dangerous game is seldom shot from long distance. If you are going to something larger than .375, I would go to a larger caliber/heavier bullet, not more velocity. I personally use a .416 Remington a big bore, but would be certainly happy with a 375H&H. MV [/QUOTE]
