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)

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.

You have a FEW 300 WSM's???

I don't prefer the belted magnums with shoulders either however!

One is set up as a Heavy long range hunting rig, it used to be my Heavy Williamsport gun, I just use it for hunting now and it's due to be barreled, Considering a 338 Edge for the next chamber

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?

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.

You say that like it should be an easy task?

Ridge Runner

so you have shot .2 at 500? with the 300 wsm? post pics of the target please, I have shot .04 moa at 750 yards with an even more obscure cartridge one developed back in the 60's.

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.
