I remember when the WSM family of cartridges came out and were being praised as God's gift to the world. They now seem to have fallen out of favor yet rounds like the 300 Win Mag are still here. I'll stick with my 30-30 and 30-06 thanks.
Makes me wonder about the 6.5 Creedmoor.
Speaking of the 300 WSM, it filled a hole that really didn't need filling. It makes for a short action but the difference there is almost negligible. My short action 300 WSM is still a pound heavier than my long action 30-06. It fits in the gap between the 30-06 and the 300 WM but it's close enough to the 300 WM that it's a negligible difference. It's a good accurate caliber but it seems to be one that wasn't needed.
