The 300 Whizzum is rather anemic,compared to a 7 Whizzum,as are all other extrapolations of said bore diameters,in similar case capacity. Hint..................

I gave one to my grandson in a lightweight hunter Savage shoots fine brass is a pain to find & magazine capacity is 2. My son bought the 300 Win mag in a Tikka it shoots fine & brass is a pain.

He put a muzzle brake on it because he is a recoil sissy. He gets laughed at by me & his boy but the grandson is left tackle on HS football team & 6’4 250lbs so not recoil shy. I’ve recommended them as a great one rifle for everything when people ask & nobody’s complained yet.

The dumber you are and the less you know,see and do...the "better" the 300 Whizzum is. Hint.

I Agree...either one of these cartridges are an excellent choice for an all-around hunting rifle 👍......Hb

I have one in a semi custom.
Old Fajen or (?) thumbhole stock, push feed Winchester model 70 long action, open to a Magnum bolt face, and a bench rest culled, Lilja 3 groove stainless heavy barrel.
Recoil is fine, a little more I feel, than a 300 wsm laminated I had, and put a McMillan edge stock on, and stupidly sold it here.
My now past machinist buddy built this for me, so it's a keeper.
It's heavy. Wears a Leupold 6-18x40 lrv reticle.
Shot an antelope with it, so it has drawn blood.
I've settled on long range bullets for it.
Nosler 165 gr solid bases.
It'll eat a ragged hole, if I do my part.
It sits now. Haven't shot it in years.
Finding I have more toys than I play with.

I've more than a "few" from 22 to 30" and they pale to ALL things 7mm...if only because bullets matter WAYYYYYY more than headstamps. Hint.

Nuzzler Solid Bases are junk in 150,165 and 180. Hint.

My rifle shoots them well, I have a bunch of them, and I'm not shooting it.
So it's all fine by me.
And I too like 7mm things.
From 7-08, to 7x64, to a Magnum or 2, and some more in between.
7mm's just fly so nicely !

I absolutely love my 300wsm, although I never hunt with it. I grab 7-08,308, 6.5 that are short and light. I shot my biggest deer with 300wsm. It’s also one of my my consistently accurate rifles. 1/2” gun when I do my part. Sub inch even if Stevie Wonder shoots it. Sako Finnlight bedded in a McMillan Sako Hunter stock. Absolute hammer.

You have no idea how accurate that statement is. I’ve not shot that rifle 20 times in last 5-6 years. When I do, it goes where the little cross thingy is in my scope.

I love the .300WSM. The relatively abundant brass keeps my 7WSMs fed and shooting. I don’t own a rifle chambered in .300WSM, but I own plenty of brass.

If my (6) 7 Whizzum's could read,they'd assuredly think they was 300's. Happiness is a positive headspaced false shoulder and Wicked BC Magfed Smoches from a 3.00"+ COAL blind box...though I've only got a Trio of Montucky's chambered same. Hint.

A 26" 300 Super(300 Weatherby Improved),cain't begin to keep pace with a 24" 7 Whizzum at 3" COAL and a .796 BC. Hint.

Though fortunately,Imagination and Pretend are free,so even The Google Gals can "afford" to "contribute". To their perpetual combined chagrin,some folks still actually fhuqking shoot. Hint.

Stick - obviously not a magnum, but genuinely curious what you think about the 7x64. I sold one (when I got a new 280) and have regretted it ever since.

300 WSM ?
awesome low recoil choice for the gals & kids in the family, for typical moose hunting distances, have 3 Tikka T3 Lite's in 300 WSM for the kids, all have killed moose that put them in the 60" club

still don't see how grown adult men bitch about recoil in a 300 WSM ! a true WTF ? moment every time I hear or see that nonsense, watched the 14 year old, 90 lb kid empty a box of 200 gr hot handloads without any complaints, then ya see guys crying about factory 180 gr recoil .... makes no sense

Every since the 300wizzum was introduced back in 2001 it has sold pretty consistently in my neck of the woods, and today it still has a fairly strong following.

I have bought and sold all four of the WSM's over the years... and have another T3x coming from Finland...
R17..., warne steel T3 mounts and a Swaro Z5 2.4-12x50 is awaiting its arrival. Happy days! smile

The 300 Whizzum is HILARIOUS,because some can conjure "200gr hot handloads"...the "lucky" kchunts. Hint. Congratulations?!?

for a Creediot who drools and wets himself over 143 gr ELDX bc at 2800 fps, one would think you'd understand that a 200.20x bullet at 2950 fps is a LOT more potent than that crap and "hotter" than any 180 gr factory WSM ammo

Reloder 26, ADG brass, 200.20x bullets seated out to kiss the lands and Fed 215's are like Jimi said ..... "Excuse me, while I kiss the sky"

BUT... that might just be too much recoil for ya little fella, best "stick" to the mini cartridges that don't hurt ya

was comparing factory 300 WSM ammo vs my handloads ...
not your 7 mm with wHornady [bleep] bullets, Alaskan game deserves a better & more honorable death than by wHorenady garbage

in my world I shoot 7mm 195 and 197 gr bullets at 3250-3300 fps, not something your pea brain can imagine without terror over recoil, I'm used to seeing 1.0 bc and above as "high bc" .796 bc is nowhere near high bc unless you're a friggin Creediot shooting the little pansy cartridges because "recoil & barrel life" cause you night terrors and bed wetting
