Weatherby Vanguard S2

hi i think i made a mistake

i just purchased a Weatherby vanguard .300 wby mag and i got so excited to go try it out and sight it in that i purchased .300 win mag by mistake, and fired it, successfully... i realize that this should never happen and it won't again but i am wondering if there is a chance that it could have damaged my rifle. really i just want to know if there is anything that could have gone wrong
 
Probably not.
They both headspace on the belt and the Win Mag just fireforms to fit the Wby Mag chamber. Came out with a real short neck, didn't they?

A friend shot an 11 point with a Vanguard Win Mag on Friday.
Her second deer, first real trophy.
 
yeah they did i just didn't know if with it being a smaller round maybe it would rattle around and damage something thank you for calming my nerves
 
I have a 30-06 vanguard deluxe and after floating the barrel it shoots 1to1 1/2 groups at 100yds. This with off the shelf ammo 165 grain bullet. For deer hunting this will do just fine. I am very pleased with this gun.
