As do I in my Sako 300 WSM Finnlight. It will push 150's to 3400 fps. I was shocked when I saw that on the chrono. I was also happy grin


By the way, in case you missed it, Jeremiah was a bullfrog.

My favorite 7mm now is the WSM. I don't even own a 7mmRM any more, but I do still have a 7mm-08 in a Mannlicher stocked Mauser and a 7mm Mauser carbine. The WSM seems to be the best of all the 7mm/.280 worlds for me. As for .300's, I have several, but I tend to lean to the WBY. I am grooming a .270WBY in a Ruger #1 for possible long range use this year with the addition of a new Minox scope. Good luck.

Nosler makes a .277 160gr partition. I was going to load some up for elk in my 270 wby.

The new heavy gun 1000yd group record is 2.85" for a ten shot group. All of them fit in the 10 ring also. It was shot with a 300WSM and 210grn. bullets.
