Pig- According to many gun experts including my God father who is a Investigator for the state police and has testedmany popularhunting calibers through NRA stuff and his personal love and passion of Big Game cartridges and ballistics, he says SMags are more accurate and a tad faster than traditional magnums.. His sniper buddie says they are more accurate also.He hunts with one and loves it.I don't know personally and I've never handled a 300 win mag. Ballistically I believe the 300 WSM is alittle faster.Many articles written in some top noch gun publications say short magnums are more accurate on paper.
And yes i do prefer the short bolt on these guns.

What is your god father's name? because he isn't telling the truth, the WSM's arn't any faster, they are identical, if that.

Not to mention all theOutdoor Channel programs. Many of the gun/hunting journals have all good things to say about these cartridges. Bass Pro Shops hunting show has supported these short mags calibers in all their gear discriptions before their hunts. the 300WSMand 325 WSM is usedalmost exclusively by their staff. Many other hunting showshave these popular WSM's on all the time. They are being bought and are very popular.
Can you say "kowtowing to sponsors"?

The Long Action magnum wins, every time. No arguement about it.

It sounds like the "hunting community" has bought into it. Maybe you are the sap for not giving the WSM's some credit?
