Had a Tikka T3 in 300wsm. At first it looked promising for reloading
but the velocities were way off with hand loads. might as well be
shooting a 30-06. The only thing that worked was a 180g load.
Besides, I have sworn off the belted mags for the most part.
All that they do is beat the crap out of you and raise hell with
the dental work. If I need more punch than a 30-06 than I will
grab my 338-06. A buddy of mine says that you HAVE to have
at least a 300 WIN mag for elk. I have 6 elk. 4 with 308 w/ 165g
and 2 with the 338-06 w/220g. He has 2 kills and 2 lost.
IMHO, get rid of the idea and stick with what has worked for close to a hundred years. JMHO.
