The .300 Winchester Magnum is a lighter cartridge than typically necessary for the largest bears; loaded with heavier bullets, hunters have had success with the cartridge against these ...
The .300 WSM also head-spaces off of the case shoulder, versus the older .300 Winchester Magnum's belted head space design. The advantage to this round is the ballistic performance is nearly identical to the .300 Winchester Magnum [ 2 ] in a lighter rifle with a shorter action burning 8 - 10% less gunpowder.
The .338 Winchester Magnum was introduced in 1958 together with the .264 Winchester Magnum and the .458 Winchester Magnum, all of which used a common case design based on the .375 H&H Magnum case blown out and shortened to 2.500 in (63.5 mm), much like the .334 OKH. When the cartridge was introduced, Winchester offered a 200 gr (13 g) at 3,000 ...

It is evident that the .416 Remington Magnum is a ballistically superior cartridge to the .458 Winchester Magnum and has a trajectory close to that of the .375 H&H Magnum. While the .458 Winchester Magnum retains4,000 ft⋅lbf (5,400 J) to about the 65 yd (59 m) the .416 Remington Magnum carries that energy level beyond the 100 yd (91 m) mark ...
The moose had managed to escape the bear's clutches and the bear wandered over to a meadow to graze. But that doesn't mean that Larson wasn't shaken by the experience.
When firing a 9.7 g (150 gr) AccuBond Long Range bullet from a rifle with a 660 mm (26 in) barrel, the .27 Nosler has an approximately 120 m/s (400 ft/s) advantage over the .270 Winchester, about a 90 m/s (300 ft/s) advantage over the .270 WSM, and about a 30–46 m/s (100–150 ft/s) velocity advantage over the .270 Weatherby. The primary use ...
It is capable of duplicating the trajectory of the .300 Winchester Magnum, while generating significantly lower recoil.
