It seems to me they are and am curious what others think. Seems like new bullets are making the big magnums not as necessary.


A box of 30-06 cartridges can still be found for under $25.00 in places try finding a box of 300WSM or 300 WM etc for that money. When the economy is doing well, $40+ for a box of cartridges is not so bad, maybe people are making decisions based on their wallets these days, hence the Ruger American etc.
