[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 37292, member: 313"] Yes - It has been done - sort of. It's called the 300Wby mag. The 300Wby case and the STW case (8mm mag) have nearly identical case capacities. A 30STW should be ballistically similar to the 300Wby. Incidently, I'm sure the 30STW has been done. I've also seen the 257STW, 6.5STW, 7STW and the 8mm Rem mag which is the original case for the STW series of cartridges. There are soooo many cartridges available today that it is unlikely that an unexplored niche remains. Most experimenters are merely reinventing the wheel. I shoot a 7STW and really like the cartidge. It should be adequate for most game up to moose. The 300's are good if you intend on shooting the 220-240 grain bullets. Just my 2 cents - VH [/QUOTE]
