[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 473797, member: 505"] I think they disontinued H-870 and replaced it with us869 or something. I haven't tried it. You can get good loads with H-1000 and the light bullets. The old barnes bullets were worthless. You couldn't hit the barn if you were standing in it with the old barnes. They cut the cute little grooves in there plus made the bullets open up better and more reliably. Now they are as accurate as any bullet I shoot and on game performance is exceptional. The sierra 215 game king will work on your elk hunt. My best loads with H-1000 powder and the 215 Sierra hit right around 112-113 grains. I shoot mine max length that will feed through my magazine and eject properly. Hope this helps and gives you a good starting point anyway. Start with the same load with the 210 tsx. Either will do fine on your elk hunt. Good luck in Montana. They have some good hunting in some areas where the wolves haven't destroyed the herd yet. [/QUOTE]
