I knew it would happen.There are tons of new Wssm winchesters and WSM calibers rifles left on gunbroker and gunsamerica but most of the classic calibers are gone in new winchesters.I bet they have to really mark down the wssm calibers to get rid of them.The 300and 270 wsm will probally get gone but the 7 mm wsms will hang around with the wssms.They should give away 500 pcs of brass or 100 rounds of ammo with each rifle.I think the wssms and the wsms were partly to blame for winchesters closing.They almost forgot the classic calibers and had too many wssm and wsm rifles.It was too much too soon.The shooters and hunters took to the 300 wsm first then the 270 wsm.I think the 325 wsm got lost in the shuffle.I will be suprised if it survives two years now.If it had been the 338 wsm it might have had a chance.I will just stick to my good old 264 win mag,338 win mag ,416 rem mag and 338-378 weatherby.I just got a new 250-3000 to introduce my girlfriend into shooting and hunting.Take a kid hunting and fishing then he or she will be the sportsman of the future.

Funny, of all the WSM's, I thought the .325 had the most promise (an actual niche in the cartridge world). Then A-Square brought out the 338-06 and Federal has their 338. As said in a famous fantasy movie... There can only be one...
