[QUOTE="Broz, post: 649600, member: 7503"] LRHWAL, I have also been using the 210 Bergers for years. I started when they were in the yellow boxes too. Once they changed to the orange box I switched to them. I myself have not notices a difference in performance. I shoot a lot of elk with them and I often get pass throughs. Especially on the longer shots like 600 to 800 yards. My rifle and my sons are both 300 win mags and are sending the bullets between 2916 and 2995 fps. But even with pass throughs the exits are always 1 1/4" to 1 3/4" so the wund channel is very large. I would say that as long as you are using the orange bos bullets you are using th more expansive of the Bergers. I hope this helps a little and maybe Eric will chime in and give you accurate details on the box and number changes. Thanks for your post. You are taking soe very large tough animals with the 210 Bergers that I will never get to hunt. It is nice to hear that the bulets I choose are working wel on large game in Africa and you are seeing similar preformance from them even at 130 meters. Jeff [/QUOTE]
