RE: Looking for a deer rifle, lots of questions..
It's hard to go wrong with any one of those calibers. I would wait a few years before getting a WSM or WSSM shooter. There's nothing wrong with them it's just I have a feeling that one or two of them is going to drift to the obsolete cartridge shelf. Most of the short magnums are just duplicating what an already established cartridge is doing just fine. The improvement in performance is there but not enough for me.
