[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 454794, member: 13285"] I have used the "Old" Hornady 250 grain BTHP Match bullet with good success but recently they upgraded their match bullet jackets and now they appear too thick to be reliable on game at lower velocity. I have used the 300 grain SMK with good results but am suspect on there performance on large game past 800 yards out of my .338 Edge. The Bergers are not available here. I have also used Hornady 225 grain Soft points with great success out of a .338WM, a very reliable game getter. Looking to use 225 Hornady SST's out of my .338 RUM once my supply of "Old" style Hornady 250 grain match bullets is used up. Very disapointed that the 285 grain Hornady A-Max bullet did not come out with a plastic tip. What we need is a plastic tipped 250 grain bullet that has a better B.C. than the 250 grain Nosler Accubond. [/QUOTE]
