The reason I asked is because I am transferring from University of Alaska to a school back home in Texas. Where whitetails and mulies will be primarily what I hunt. I have a 300 wby right now and I absolutely love it! Yet I want a more compact size rifle that still packs a punch. After hunting with my 300 wby for several years, I just want to make sure that I wont be disappointed with the persormance if I indeed get a 300 wsm.
Don't buy into that garbage about a more compact rifle, the 22" barrel on some of the WSM's effects performance, that .300 WBY will do a lot more than the .300 WSM.
