Anyone tried a 375WSM, 416WSM or 470WSM?

Just wondering about the peformance. Would they be close to the Taylor's ?

I added the 470WSM, think of it as the runt of the litter. 470 Mbogo, 470 AR & the little 470 WSM.

howdy..
rick jamison (who PATENTLY heh invented the wsm) did 458, 423, 426, 375, 366, 358, 338, 323, ..all the way to 257...

I've got a 416 WSM in my collection.. looks alot like the 416 AR, except .5 shorter. it hits pressure fairly quick, and is 65kspi with a long barrel to get 2400 with a 400gr

John Noveske here in Grants Pass Oregon has done a lot of work with the WSM in the bigger bores... Hornady makes Dies in 458 WSM and labels it the 458 Noveske...

his site should be www.noveskerifleworks.com

he does a lot of neat things with ARs also..

cheers
