.300 WBY MAG.
 

Is .300 WBY Mag. enough for elk and bear? s it too much for whitetail? What caliber do you recommend?

RE: .300 WBY MAG.
 

I think its a fine caliber I use either a 300 ultra mag or 7mm ultra mag I don' t think you can ever have too much power:D

RE: .300 WBY MAG.
 

The 300 Wby. Mag is a very good choice, and will do a very good job for you. Good luck.

Elk and bear...good choice! As for deer you might be a little over gunned...[:o]

RE: .300 WBY MAG.
 

Excellent caliber for the game you mentioned. If you can, check the ballistics and you will be impressed. Good luck.

RE: .300 WBY MAG.
 

Its plenty for elk and bear, you should have no problems. It will easily kill a deer but the reason PaJack says you might be a little overgunned is they have tendancy to ruin a lot meat if you hit a bone structure. Just a lot of shock for deer sized game. But you hit em right and you won' t have any problems.

The 300 wby is an excellent moose and elk cartridge.The only reason I sold mine was that the weatherby rifle didn' t provide the accuracy I demanded.However now that I own two 300 ultramags I prefer this cartridge over the 300 wby as it produces more velocity at equal pressures.

.300 Weatherby is most certainly adequate for anything in North America. I wouldn' t trade mine (Rem 700 Classic) for anything. I do handload for it, so I tone it down some for use on whitetails.
