[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 96891, member: 1403"] If you get a 300 RUM, I would suggest nothing lighter then a 180g. I played around with to many bullets and lost half my life finding loads for every weight of bullet. Thats just the tinkerer that I am. Now I'm a little older and wiser, I think I'll stick with at least a 200g and be done with it. The 165g are still cooking and got some energy, but the 180g I think is where it really starts for the 300 RUM. If you want a hunting bullet for LR, the 200g AB might be the best bet. For a target bullet, The 220g and 240g SMK's are good choice. I have been shooting the 210g berger VLD with very good results, but I think they are more of an explosive bullet then the others.
