The .28 Nosler shares the same overall cartridge length of 84.8 mm (3.340 in) as the .26 Nosler which allows it to be chambered in standard-length action.

The .300 Winchester Magnum has a case capacity of 93.8 grains. While providing ballistic performance nearly identical to that of the .300 Winchester Magnum, 300 WSM does this with about 14 grains less powder. The .300 WSM also head-spaces off of the case shoulder, versus the older .300 Winchester Magnum's belted head space design.
The .300 Win Mag remains the most popular .30 caliber magnum with American hunters, despite not being as fast as more powerful .300 Magnums such as the .300 Weatherby Magnum and .30-378 Weatherby Magnum as well as the newer .300 Remington Ultra Magnum, .300 Norma Magnum, .30 Nosler, and .300 PRC, though all of these must be chambered in a long ...

A wildcat cartridge based on the .25 WSSM, called the .358 WSSM or .358 BFG, has similar performance to the standard .358 Winchester and .35 Whelen. [6] Additionally, Olympic arms created the .300 OSSM, which is a 25 WSSM necked up to .308” giving performance between 30-06 and .300 Winchester Magnum. [citation needed]
The 7mm WSM has failed to gain the same popularity as the other cartridges in the WSM family. Some people erroneously believe the short case necks make the 7mm WSM poorly suited to heavier bullets, limiting the cartridge's usefulness on larger game. It is no different in this respect than the popular 300 Winchester Magnum. [3]
