[QUOTE="ssssnake529, post: 1370028, member: 92079"] I am a Berger cultist. Pretty much shoot only Bergers (after trying most everything else.) However, my wife and kids refuse to eat meat shot with lead bullets. So, I'm switching to solid copper bullets for hunting. I shoot 300 Win Mag for elk, and 6.5 Creedmoore for deer. Currently using Berger's 230 grain high BC 30 caliber bullet and Berger's 140 grain high BC elite hunter for the 6.5. I know very little about copper solid bullets. So far, lots of Googling and reading has led me to the following companies: Hammer Cutting Edge Flatline (Warner Tool) Barnes Accuracy is important to me. I'm used to 1/2 or less MOA when shooting my Bergers. I've also been spoiled by Berger's high BC bullets, so a good ballistics coefficient is important as well. Anyone have some recommendations/comparisons based on actual use of these (or other) bullets? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
