[QUOTE="Cold Trigger Finger, post: 1642389, member: 56732"] Tho the 338 Win mag works very well with many bullet weights. I think the 225 gr @ around 2800 fps. Is a truly great standard. I'm a Barnes guy. Not a Berger guy. Nothing against Berger . Except I won't hunt with them . Having never bow hunted because I never needed to. I'm not going to be hindered by a bullet I would only put where I would put an arrow if I had to. I have lots of bang flops with Barnes X, TSX and TTSX bullets. On the flip side, I won't argue with someone that has had bad success with Barnes bullets . Lots of different things can happen when hunting. And I sure ain't seen it all. For me. I'll shoot Barnes. Any rapidly expanding bullet is going to radiate blood shock. Wether its an SST or Berger or any other fragile fronted bullet. Granted most Barnes bullets aren't really Long range bullets , and this is the LRH forum. But, where I hunt its kind of hard to find anywhere to take longer than a 500 yard shot. 225 gr TTSX BT in 338 cal @ 2800 fps is about as close to a do it all bullet as one could likely find.
