[QUOTE="Colt45_13, post: 1542823, member: 108516"] MFK, I spent a lot of time attempting to answer the exact question you just asked. I believe the answer to your question is no, the 300 WSM (Short Action) cannot compete with the 300 WM when loading longer, heavier bullets. However, the caveat here is the short action. I believe if I build the 300 WSM on the long action which allows me to seat the bullets out fairly long, then I will be able to increase my powder charge to equal the performance of the 300 WM, and possibly even surpass the 300 WM (according to conversations with Hornady).
