I had the exact same rifle and chambering Richard has.I could complain just a leetle bit about the stock being a bit slimmer here and there....but one thing it does well is make for a comfortable shooting rifle.

The comb is high and thick;this coupled with the cheekpiece helps control recoil very well.The wrist is a bit thick but not enough so that it was not easy to control.

The overall weight of the rifle is about prfect for a 300 WSM and frankly I for one would not want it any lighter.

Function was flawless,something I could not say about some NH WSM rifles I've owned.

This rifle was among the most accurate factory rifles I have ever owned and it was no trick to keep it sub MA at 300 yards, which I did with it several times.If I were on the market for a 300 WSM today,the EW would be the first rifle I'd grab.
