The only 2 deer I've ever lost in over 20 years of hunting with rifle, bow, crossbow, handgun, were shot with Nosler Accubonds. Just sayin.
1 was shot at 45 yards, the other at 98.
I am going on my first elk hunt and would like some opinions on bullets. I plan on using a 7mm rem mag with a 175 sierra game king or savage in 308 with a 165 grain sierra game king. Are the game king spitser bullets a good choice or should I work a load for a different bullet ?
I am not real sure about the Bergers becuse of the seating depth, not fond of the idea of bullet touching the lands. Now the big decision will be which rifle to take as a back up.
I guess I maybe slightly misinformed on the Bergers. Most of what I have been told by others that shoot them or have read [ even the companies own information on loading] it'a a rarity that they will do ok not touching the lands. I felt that if this is the case there maybe an issue with them fitting in the magazine or have a feeding problem or like you said one sticking in the barrel causing a major foul up of my action during a hunt.
