[QUOTE="dkhunt14, post: 997127, member: 14053"] First off I would build a 300 WSM. The reason is good brass that lasts forever, just about as much velocity depending on bullet and powder, and easier to tune. Every 1000 yard heavy bench gun in 300 WIN and 308 Baer that was cut off and rechambered in 300 WSM shot way better then before. When I shot the 308 Baer the throat moved About .025 each year. The Baer is about the same capacity as the WIN Mag. The WSM doesn't move More then .002 to .003 a year with the same amount of shots. That is a lot less barrel wear in the throat. I know I will get posts disputing this but they are all facts. The other 30 cal magnums have disappeared on the 1000 yard line. I shoot at Williamsport and am talking about 100 light guns and 70 heavy guns per match. So it is a big sampling. Almost every record in 100 yard BR is held by a 6 Dasher or 300 WSM. Maybe Bountyhunter will step in and verify this. Matt [/QUOTE]
