If it has an adjustable brake that can help tune it to the ammo.
I would make sure the action is bedded correctly and all the screws are tight. A treatment with JB Bore paste is a good plan along with cleaning from the breach using a good solvent like Shooter's choice.
Good plan to shoot one bullet at everything - only one trajectory to learn that way.
As a general rule, though, only your rifle can tell you what it likes best. The only way to do that is to try different loads. When ding so, do not shoot more than 3 shots, so you keep your barrel cool, and keep it clean. The WSM's are a high pressure round, and will erode the throat if shot hot and/or dirty.
