I think availability of ammo for the 300 wsm is a little bit overstated… Find some, buy all you’ll ever need, and be done. Or have Unknown Munitions or some other boutique load up 300 rounds and move on. It’s a great round. You’ll pay a little more than with 300 WM or 7 RM but what you’re...

b) supports COAL than enables the 200/205/208/215 gr bullets
c) allows the magazine to be easily latched having 3 rounds installed and the bolt...
@BjornF16 and @PathFinder - that's awesome news and great contribution to the discussion on this. Thanks!
