Record holder Jim Richards shooting a 2.6872" group at 1000 yards (all in the 8 ring) with a 6mm Dasher and 105 grain Bergers. This was LIGHT GUN class. Matt Klines' record in HEAVY GUN was 2.815" with a 300 WSM. All of Matt's were in the 10 ring with 3 in the X ring and one cutting the line. Group size goes to Jim, scoring goes to Matt. (Jim missed closer) :D

I have many rifles chambered for those rounds including a 300 H&H in an old M70!
I have a 260 Rem, 264 WM, 270 Win., 270 WSM, 7 X 57, 7mm WSM, 7 RemMag, 300 Win Mag, 300 H&H and other chamberings. I don't enjoy the kick from the 300 magnums and I take the 7's to hunt. We all vary. Get what you like. |

300 Win Mag simply because of Bullet selection. I'd take a WSM over it though because of inherent accuracy and it isn't a belted mag. I have a few 300WSM's and won't be without one.
I don't prefer the belted magnums with shoulders either however! |

You have a FEW 300 WSM's???
I don't prefer the belted magnums with shoulders either however! The other is a Light gun with an MTU Taper, it's set up as a switch Barrel, the other barrel is a 1.250" made to keep under 20lbs for a local match I like to shoot at. It's on it's 3rd MTU Barrel. A 300WSM isn't the answer for everything but it is an awesome all around cartridge. |
ever shoot a .04 moa group with that inherently accurate 300 wsm at long range?

RR You say that like it should be an easy task? |

Not a 10 shot group a 1000, several under that at 500 under match match conditions. It's cleaned up at Ridgway's long range varmint match a few times. Truth be told I'm beginning to like the dasher a bit more for competition.

RR, are you forgetting a decimal somewhere? I well know the grade of rifles you shoot, and know you're extremely skilled, but .04 moa at 750 yards is .3. Now moa is a tad over inches but .3 at 750 yards? If you say you did it I'll believe you as you have no reason to exaggerate. Heck I was happy when my sporter weight (almost) deer rifle I built chambered in my wildcat got 2.5" 5 shot groups at 800!

The 300 WSM beats the 7mm and the 300 Win Mag hands down. The best thing about the 300WSM is the gun itself. It has a short action with a 23" barrel. It is a pleasure to carry around and has better ballistics than the 7MM or the 300 Win mag.
