[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 383497, member: 505"] Like I said the 7mm wsm is an excellent cartridge and you would be very pleased with it. It is very capable to do what your requirements are. I was just trying to show you how to save some money because what you have is also very good. The 177 grain 30 caliber GS HV hunting bullet is either .638 or .648 bc. On their website under hv hunting bullet technical data. The 300 wsm will push it over 3100 fps in the t3 light. With that bullet the 300 wsm becomes an excellent round. The 300 ultramag becomes awesome pushing it close to 3500 fps. The bullet is a solid copper allow that is similar in performance to the barnes bullet but doesn't open up quite as well. It stays together through about anything you can shoot it through hunting wise anyway. With the animals your hunting and the range your looking at your 300 wsm tikka t3 will be excellent and I see no need spending the money changing it up. Others probably have other opinions though. If you have accuracy problems with it many times changing the recoil lug system on it to one similar to the rem 700 and bedding it can help. [/QUOTE]
