[QUOTE="Coyote_Hunter, post: 1723078, member: 110773"] logguy - As someone else pointed out, there are lots of good options. For my hunting, I prefer a bullet that holds together and provides rapid but controlled and limited expansion at any range I'm likely to take a shot. For my .300WM, that means from the muzzle to 600 yards, the limit of my practice. North Fork was a favorite, and still is (I have a bunch), but they are no longer made. Barnes 180g TTSX and the MRX predecessor have performed flawlessly for me in my .300WM, with my longest shot on elk at 400 yards, give or take a couple yards (per Google Earth). Now I'm using the Barnes 175g LRX. Barnes bullets have been accurate in every rifle we've tried them in, including .257 Roberts, 6.5 CM, ,280 Rem, 7mm RM, multiple .308 Win, multiple .30-06, .300WSM and .300WM. AccuBond bullets are another bullet I trust. While we don't use them in a .300WM, we do use them in .257 Roberts, .270 Win, .280 Rem, .30-06 and .338WM. Partitions, A-Frame and Scirocco II are good choices if they shoot in your rifle. The Federal Edge TLR is, from a design standpoint, possibly the best hunting bullet ever made. Have not had a chance to test them but plan to do so. At the end of the day, a bullet that doesn't shoot well in your rifle isn't worth your time. [/QUOTE]
