[QUOTE="DinoS, post: 702229, member: 41699"] I went on a 3 day trip with the 300 but did not get the chance to stretch the legs on this load. I have not shot it through the chrono yet either. I did however get to see what the 185's do to a bear. I was hunting chickens (Grouse) with my cousin with the 22's and scouting for good moose territory when a 200 lb blackbear stepped out at 185 laser ranged yards. We were taking a break and had water on the single burner on the tailgate for coffee when it came out. I pulled out the 300 layed down with the forend on a day pack and touched one off. The bear balled up and dropped in less than 5 yards. We were sifting through the entrails looking at the damage when my cousin asked me "where the hell is the heart". We found it, it looked like a rag. The thing was blown wide open, completely opened up. We took pictures of the thing thinking nobody would believe the damage the VLD would cause. I don't know if "I shoot better I shoot Berger" but I can say "I kill faster, I use berger". I will have a chance soon to chrono this load. Will keep you posted. DinoS PS: I used the 100 yard zero at this range and point of impact was dead on. 41st bullet down the pipe. [/QUOTE]
