[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 658279, member: 48043"] I guess I'll buck the trend here and ask Bryan to take a look at the heavy thirty cal bullets that aren't designed with the 300win's mag length limitations in mind as the sierra's are(you can load the 220 sierra 30 cal hpbt to 3.34" and be fine). I can only assume the Berger heavy in 30 cal will require a longer mag length to accomodate the ogive and metplat? If it does, I may be sold. I am at present using the 225 hornady 30 cal with the three hundred ultra at 3000 fps and with its 0.670 bc, it is right in there with the 7mm 180 berger at 0.659 bc and above the 6.5 mm 140 match at 0.618 bc. It is getting flat close to the 338 300 gr with its 0.768 bc. [/QUOTE]
