Win Mag vs. WSM

extreme01 · 12-30-2009

I am looking to buy a new rifle 300 caliber and I am undecided to either get the Win Mag version or the WSM. Any suggestions?

I would go with a WSM, the ballistics look better.

"The .300 WSM is, however, the most modern .30 caliber cartridge in the magnum class, utilizing the best available knowledge in cartridge design. As such it represents the best combination of ballistic performance, round-to-round consistency, and reduced recoil and muzzle blast." wikipedia

I love my Winchester Model 70 in 300WSM. No need to fool with a belt on the case. That said I know many hunters who would never part with their 300 Win Mags. You can't really go wrong with either one.
