I'm somewhat baffled by your statements that the Winchester Short Magnums were dropped by various companies, including Browning and Winchester, after Jamison won the court case. This is partly because purchased not one but two new Winchester Model 70's in .300 WSM from a local gunstore, one in 2008 (not long after the suit) and another in 2016. (The second was one of the "Portugese" 70s, purchased mostly because I kept hearing derogatory statements about them from various people who'd never owned one. The only one the store had in stock was a .300 WSM.)
Plus, both Browning and Winchester still chamber the .270, .300 and .325 WSMs--and a bunch of other rifle manufacturers chamber at least the .300 WSM, both in the U.S. and Europe.
