[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 798850, member: 11717"] To make gains in one area you almost always have to compromise in other areas. If I was a point blank to 500 yd hunter I would choose a 300 WSM vs a 300 RUM and my bullet would be a 180 E-Tip vs a CE or Berger bullet which have higher BC's The 180 E-Tip bullets below were recovered from partially frozen ground behind 400 and 500 yd targets shot from a 300 RUM. I like them because they show excellent terminal performance and they are tougher than typical copper mono's because they are made from guilded metal much like jacket material. I have also found them easy to accurately load for. Their mediocre BC don't make them a good LR choice unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
