There sure is not shortage of ammo for the WSM's where I live. Every gun store has them and Walmart does as well. Also you can order it from Midway and many others. I wouldn't let that stop me. However I will reload for mine so its not an issue anyway. I would look at the 7mm-08 in the Remongton SPS. They come with 24 inch barrels and properly loaded, the recoil is light and yet they will take all NA big game. Maybe not the Big Bears but everything else.
