The WSM's a great rounds for hunters and shooters just coming into the market for a rifle in any of their respective classes. Lighter rifles are one added plus, but the real advantages come when you start to reload. Case walls are THICK, this allong with minimal taper and steeper shoulders makes for long brass life, much longer than their belted counterparts. I Have a .300WSM and have had very good luck with it, I would have gone .325 if it was out when I bought my rifle. Sales of rifles in .325 in my area are low, but that is mainly because there is no game requiring such a chambering anywhere locally. The .270 is the hottest seller followed by the .300.
you sure did bite right into that .300 WSM, which any knowledgable shooter or hunter will tell you, is a waste of money
Like, CMA said, the WSM's are great cartridges, which are easier on the reloader than their belted brethren.
