While I don't have a dog in this fight I find it hard to believe that the 7mm WSM isn't a noticable improvement over the 7mm/08, come on. So if you believe this you also believe the 7mm/08 is the balistic twin of the 7mm mag as well - yeah right.

Again, I don't own any WSM rifles currently so if this cartridge goes away then so be it - plenty of good alternative out there.
