Who would have thought this was so difficult! I'm looking for a bullet that is amazing for F-Class and rocks on Whitetail Deer. I'd love to work-up one load, on one bullet, and be able to shoot awesome groups at 1000-yds and drop a deer at 750-yds +. Does this bullet exist for the 300WSM...

I've heard widely conflicting opinions regarding this exact topic. Some people have said 800-1000 rounds while others have said 2,000 rounds and one even said 4,000 rounds through a 300 WSM! So, what are your thoughts? Have any of you shot out a 300 WSM barrel? If so, how many rounds did...

I'm thinking of avoiding building a new hunting rifle altogether. I've narrowed it down to two rifles. I'll be hunting whitetail deer out to 500ish yards from a tree-stand. Which would you choose? Tikka T3 Lite 300 WSM -or- Savage Model: 11 Long Range Hunter (Savage Arms Firearms > 11 Long...

I have a couple quick questions regarding the Tikka T3 Lite in 300 WSM 1. Can I buy an extended/high capacity magazine for the 300 WSM? If so, where? 2. Can't I use any rings I want on a EGW Picatinny Rail? I see lots of threads asking "where can I get rings for the Tikka T3 Lite" and...

This will be my first custom rifle and I'm getting more nervous about the level of difficulty pulling this off. Let me run by you guys what I'm thinking and tell me if I'll end up with a headache or a solid build. I plan on sending my action to Krieger and have them true the action and install...

Perfect! Thank You!

So, just so I'm clear, if I buy a 7 mm WSM, or 270 WSM action, it will work for the 300 WSM without any modification? I found a used 270 WSM Rem 700 for a good deal and if I can use that action, without modification, I'll buy it now. Thanks for all your help! ~Mac

Looking for a stainless Rem 700 Magnum Short Action for a 300 WSM build I'm starting.

I'm starting to put together my list of needs for a custom 300 WSM build and have a possibly foolish question. Can I use any short action for my 300 WSM? Aren't the WSM case heads larger in diameter than regular short action, non-magnum rounds? What do I need to look for? Also, can I use a...
