Just me, but I'd stay way the hell away from the WSM... Care to expound? In a similar rifle, the WSM provides much more felt recoil.. It's also more finicky to get to feed right... I had a customer who was a yuge M70 fan.. Had a bunch, shot 'em all, a LOT.. He bought a M70 in .300 WSM.. Went to his bench, shot once, packed it up and brought it to me and said, (and I quote) " Put a muzzle brake on this sumbish. It's the only rifle I ever shot that knocked my hat off when I pulled the trigger." 'Nuff said right there..

It goes against physics for the 300wsm to kick more, at all, than the 300 win mag in the same rifle, using similar loads. It uses less powder and has a lower MV. We've got a model 70 sporter in 300wsm and the recoil has never been a problem.

I like the 300wsm better than the 300 win mag. Recoil is slightly less as is velocity for the wsm. The 300 wsm also feeds very well from my model 70.

Montucky stock design trumps ALL things Winny,so their Whizzums shoot MUCH softer...despite the reduction in mass.

Every 300WSM I've had has recoiled less than the 300WM. Redneck must have had a bad one. Like someone else said, it's virtually impossible that a 300WSM is going to recoil more. They tend to use less powder, and don't quite generate the same speeds as the 300WM. Just about everyone I've talked to, also agrees that the 300wm kicks a lot more... Maybe redneck was being facetious when explaining how his buddy reacted to the recoil of the 300WSM... If so, he could have at least used a smirk emoji...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

I've owned both, the WSM stayed and the 300 win mag went down the road. The WSM recoils less, is more accurate and kills stuff just as dead.

The twig that thinks a varmint rifle crushes a 300 magnum when it comes to putting animals on the ground is touched in his pointy head. If someone is too soft to endure a little recoil or can't afford a few grains of powder they probably should extol the virtue of a girls or old mans gun.

Yeah ! like a 308 W I’ve always liked the WM, looks, long not squatty, military & competition history, hunting record to name a few reasons. Red/Blue , Ford/Chevy, etc. Jerry

Own both, but I prefer the WSM. Seems to recoil a bit less, and is in a slightly lighter and handier package. Obviously can’t tell a difference in on-game performance.
