Summary

We forgot a tiny cartridge in our “Tiny Calibers” Podcast – and you guys let us know about it. Thanks!...Jim and Mark wrangle the cartridge oracle himself, Ryan Muckenhirn, to find out all about the .17 WSM. Mark was disappointed WSM stands for Winchester Super Magnum - not Short Magnum.

by WSM better than wisdom.

0:39.5

Huh?

0:40.5

Like 300 wisdom rolls off the tongue, but 17 wisdom sounds funny to me.

0:44.6

You are correct, Jim.

0:46.0

And at first, when we were getting all these notifications from our great listeners,

0:50.5

so thank you.

0:51.5

Yes.

0:52.5

Thanks for the comments.
