Never had a use for either the WSM or WSSM cartridges. The rifles were more expensive than other options, the ammo and brass were more expensive and the benefits more imagined than practical in actual use to my way of thinking.

Bought a Ruger .300WM in late 2003, two years after the .300WSM was introduced. The Ruger was $375 on closeout at Sportsman's Warehouse because it had the hated Zytel "boat paddle" stock. After 13 years of use, I can't see where a WSM would have provided any advantage.

Not knocking the .300WSM and realize a lot of folks are happy with theirs. Just wasn't right for me.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
