[QUOTE="Scrubbit, post: 864684, member: 71886"] As Montana says, if you're taking a long range at a moose, it has to be a broadside heart/lung shot at an animal that is standing still. In that scenario, I would not use the Berger 210 target based on the lack of expansion. The hunting version might be slightly better, but as Broz says, the lead core on the 210s extends almost to the tip of the bullet and might inhibit expansion. He's had better experiences with the 215s and 230s, possibly due to the larger cavity in the nose, so I am going to try them out. Hopefully I'll have an update next fall. I carry 2 rifles when hunting, a 308 with 180 gr Interbonds for short range and the 300 with Bergers for mid to long range. [/QUOTE]
