Agreed: very good article.
The .318 WR is an itch I have been needing to scratch for a long time now.
In fact I just had a conversation with a barrel supplier 2 days ago.

Foolishly hesitated for just 24hrs on an original Westley Richards Mauser in this chambering about 25 years ago, and missed out! It had side panels, shadow-line cheek piece, horn bolt-knob, stupidly long barrel, about 4 different sighting systems on the one rifle, you know the style!
Regret can be a cruel life-long companion...!

The .338-06 I built in the interim has identical ballistics but just doesn't seem "pukka" by comparison.

Reading that article has helped strengthen my resolve. Thanks, Ripp!
