Yes you can, and it will also allow you to seat the bullets out really far.

Have a 300 rum and I'm wanting to build a 7wsm...mainly because I have a ton of wsm brass and I have another rum so I wouldn't be losing anything.

RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.
Thanks Dean. You are always there when I need you
Just a barrel switch is all I would need?
Just a heads up, 7mmWSM uses a different head space gauge than they other WSMs.

A barrel swap is all it takes.
Just make sure your RUM is a large shank if you're using a large shank WSM barrel.

I have a several RUM and WSM all are small shanks.

all of todays wsm are built on large shanks from what I gather. old ones were small shanks. be careful what you have and what you buy

It's small shank. I've built several savages so I'm not gonna mix large and small...really just wondering if I needed a different bolt head but I didn't think I did...just a bbl swap.
My 300 rum bbl is from bison gunworks and I can't get a good group with it and I'm usually really good at finding a loaf for a new bbl but this one is XXXXXX me off...waisting a lot of retumbo and that **** is hard to come by. And I don't have a 7mm in my stable and have always wanted one for a light weight elk rifle.

Like I told Dean I start with grains and find what groups the best then I work on seating depth to tighten my group and it always works to get one hole 5 rd groups but this is the first barrel it won't work on and groups are inconsistent so I can't find a load and I'm tired of waisting money on it. I'm not looking to fix this bad fouling non grouping bbl I'm looking at going to a .284 caliber since I have another 300 rum that has no problems.
I don't have 2 wsms...I have none...had one 300 wsm in the past....no short actions I'm talking building one on a long action...edit your post.
