I'm sure you have logic and reasoning behind that. Might I ask why you say that?

Because I have 1/2 dozen WSMs from 6mm through 300, and purposely mutilate my brass on a regular basis, and the Rsaum does not come any where near the speed or amount of firings they WSM based cases get, I have never owned one but I use to load for a shooting buddy and he and the cases gave up after a while. plus there was a really bad dry spell for that brass. and like most with a short attention span he went on to something else and never looked back.

Gotcha.

Even WSM brass is hard to find unless you wanna pay top dollar for mediocre brass.

I was lucky to find somebody who really liked my 6.5wsm about the same time i decided i wasent as happy as i thought i would be.
I think the 6.5/06ai is a better idea.

Me too! I haven't looked back since I made the switch.
