[QUOTE="destroyer, post: 114929, member: 4287"] I need some help on deciding what bullet to use. I'm shooting the 180 accubonds right now and looking at the 180 and 200 ballistic tips and the 179 Amax. My problem is the deer are so little that I hunt 100 pounds (Coues whitetail ) the accubonds are jut passing through before they really get time to mushroom. I want a bullet that expands much faster. I'm shooting a 300 win mag most shots will be between 350 and 450 yards. But I shot my deer at 726 yards last year so there Is a good chance for some long range shots. I've been searching the forums here and it seems most people seem to get more accuracy out of the BT than Amax. I was wondering if I jumped up to the 200 grain BT would that slow the bullet too much to get good expansion. How much more would the 200 grain cut through the wind over the 180 grain. It seems most of the misses are because of windage than elevation. Were only allowed to shoot 1 deer a year here so it might take a couple years to figure it out through trial and error. Any help would greatly be appreciated [/QUOTE]
