Winchester making 7mm WSM rifles again.

I am tired of no factory 7mm WSM rifles (except Browning). I can't wait until they hit the market.

Theoretically, the 7mm WSM should have been the best choice of the 4 available, due to the high BC ratings of the 7mm bullet line. It didn't turn out that way, with lagging sales for the 7mm WSM and the 325 WSM.

I think the 300 WSM is the most popular of the lot. Americans seem to love their 30 cals. I think the 7 and 325 are experiencing a come back. Savage has a couple of 325s, and a lot of the F-class guys are moving to 7.

Only time will tell. I will probably order the Winchester Coyote Light. But, I wish Winchester would offer the Ultimate Shadow in 7mm WSM.

cool.

Yay!!! Saving for a 70 featherweight this year, and wanted it in 7WSM, but figured I'd settle for the 300. Now if they would just offer the Deluxe in 7WSM I'd be over-the-top excited.

Wonder why the Winchester website shows the 7WSM Featherweight weighing 4 ounces more than the same in 300WSM?

More metal in the bore of the 7mm, compared to the 30 caliber, with everything else equal.
