[/quote] Ah come on- there is day and day out a bit over 100 fps diff between the two rounds. Some rifles will be a bit more and some a bit less. But generally when both are loaded to the max there will not be much diff.
A person who can handle a WM can handle a Wby, there aint a hill of beans diff between the two.
Keep them in similar rifle types and one will never know which one they are working with

I hand load and I have no problems reaching 3300 fps in the 300 Weatherby. The best I could wring out of my Model 70 (24" barrel) was 3055 fps. As to whether it makes a difference on real live game, there is only anecdotal evidence, but what Allen says rings true, I just like the Weatherby. jorge
PS: factory ammo clocks right at 3245-3260 in my 300 Weatherby
