Thanks for the feedback guys! I'm really liking the sounds of those WSM rounds and I don't currently have a 30 cal in the cabinet. I've got about 6 months to decide, but I like to start the reasearch early.

My main deer rifle is a Browning Micro Medallion in 257 Roberts. I love the rifle na dwon't trade it for the world, but it's just not anywhere near enough for elk. I would possibly take it out for black bear here in PA shooting Nosler Partion 120gr, but I have a little 760 in 35 rem that does the job a whole lot better. The wife usually uses the 257 these days though and that leaves me with no back up or 'big gun" so that's the whole jist of why I'm looking for what I want!

I'm open to any caliber choices, but it has to be adequate for the above mentioned game. Thanks again.
