[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 383752, member: 505"] Jarhead, No problem, I only have 150 or so rifles in every caliber and wildcats off about every case so I am always needing another excuse to try something else. Those you are looking at should be good ones. Pyro, The GS bullets perform better under 500 meters than over 500. The problem is them not opening up enough at slower velocities because they are a monometal bullet. At the range you are shooting there are several much cheaper bullets that would do well in your 300 wsm. Basically inside of 500 meters many choices work very well. I am using the 150 etip with a .469 bc just under 3400 fps. I guarantee at the range you are looking at it is a very good choice to take anything you meet up with. I have so many 7mm's based off so many cases I can't even count them all so I love the 7mm as much as anybody. But I wouldn't spend money to go from the 300 wsm to a 7mm of the same case. Either one is fine for what you are doing. I also wouldn't spend money to go from the 7mm wsm to the 300 wsm if I had the 7mm. If you just want to spend some money and the 7mm tickles your fancy then it will also be a good shooter. Performance wise at the range your shooting and the animals I had just as soon have the 300.
