Short Mag shooters

[Tater]

I'm looking for real, first-hand experience with any of the short magnum rounds. A friend of mine told me about the .325 WSM and, from what I've read, it's a fantastic round. Ballistics look good and I'm definitely interested. I've read a little about the .300/.270/7mm short mags and they all look good too. I'm also eyeballing the WSSMs for varmints but that's a subject for another thread. I don't know if it makes any difference but I'm looking at getting a new barrel for my Encore, not a whole new rifle. Again, I've probably read what you've read; I'm looking for real-world experience. Thanks in advance.
